Market Share Response to Advertising: An Example of Theory Testing

The purpose of this study is to formulate and test a model which can assess the impact of advertising on sales, rather than just produce sales forecasts. The proposed model, which incorporates many of the models and concepts previously suggested, is found through predictive tests to be consistent with empirical evidence.
