Overview

Since November 1994, our single focus with MCA® has been to make marketing & communications more effective, more efficient and always transparent and accountable.

The MCA/System is now a comprehensive cloud-based solution that provides for marketing & communications tracking, and new programmed input of business data. It includes decision support systems in marketing & communications, supported by automated dashboarding that connect the marketing & communications experts and the business managers with the information and the resources they need to work more effectively.

Our Commitment

As more brand owners want to improve their marketing and revenue performance capabilities, we are committed to making the power of MCA/System available quickly, cost effectively and with high quality support. This is the reason we launched a network of advisors trained on the MCA/System to empower your enterprise.

An MCA-enabled advisor is nearby: skillful, strategic & readily empowered to make the MCA/System work for you so that you can, within weeks, answer the three fundamental questions:
  • How effective are my marketing communications activities at generating brand equity, and how can we improve?
  • How efficiently are we managing communications?
  • Are our budgets well spent and our decisions leading to improved performance?

We are looking forward to helping your business deliver better marketing, so click now for a free consultation on how to design your MCA/System, with the help of an MCA-Advisor!

About MCA

BXG has developed a unique Voice of the Consumer (VoC) based Brand Experience methodology, universal ‘Brand Experience’ currency and analytics platform (powered by the Market ContactAudit® - MCA®) that provides quantitative category, market and brand-specific insights that inform responsible resource allocation and execution decisions and are strong predictors of brand health and market share growth. It measures and manages all elements of the Marketing & Communication mix empowering the Marketing function towards:

EFFECTIVENESS | EFFICIENCY | ACCOUNTABILITY

Rather than the input-based measures such as click-throughs and GRPs that have traditionally been used by marketeers, BXG uses true outcome-based MCA® Brand Experience metrics that correlate strongly with consumer choice and market share movement.
