The marketing and advertising benchmark is made up of organizations that create messaging and communciations for clients with the purpose of creating positive brand alliance and behaviour change. These organizations primarily produce and/or sell digitized or physical marketing and advertising content. This benchmark only includes Women employees. We use woman and man because most of our customers are using binary options.
Emerging

We consider this an emerging benchmark: it has enough data available for us to use bootstrapping to create a representative sample. As the sample grows in size, some scores may slightly change. Our research has shown that our bootstrapped scores are consistent with our standard benchmarks. Read more about the methodology.
