Droz and Associates Introduces The Marketing Quotient™:
Test Your Marketing Smarts

Pittsburgh, PA, January 31, 2002 – Droz and Associates, the Pittsburgh-based marketing firm, has introduced a new series of self-assessments that allow individuals to test their marketing and branding savvy. Available free on the firm’s Web site, www.droz.com, the Marketing Quotient‘ assessments include ten true/false questions on a broad range of strategic and tactical issues.

All questions are pre-tested for their level of difficulty and tests are automatically scored, based on a number of factors including the number of questions answered correctly, the level of difficulty of the questions and scores of others who have completed an MQ.

Results are categorized in groups such as Early Stage or Seasoned Professional and a full analysis is provided.

In addition to the MQ assessments, Droz and Associates offers a variety of other assessments, diagnostic tools and measurement methods to help clients plan and implement effective and measurable marketing programs. The firm also uses a proprietary Scorecard™ process to track projects against benchmarks.
