A CMO Confidential Interview with Dr. Daniel McCarthy, Assistant Professor of Marketing at Emory's Goizueta Business School.

Key topics include: why it is challenging to agree on key modeling variables like acquisition cost; how CLTV can bridge the translation gap between marketers and finance; and why business schools are slow to evolve.
