We all want what’s best for our company. However, our teams may execute things differently. Often, we see tension between our marketing and finance teams: our companies’ creative and analytical branches, respectively. They may not see the eye-to-eye on the best way forward. Marketing may feel that finance is trying to cut their resources. In contrast, finance thinks that marketing is spending too much without measuring results.
