How much should you spend on marketing
The U.S. SBA and common benchmarks suggest 7–8% of revenue for established companies and 10–12%+ for those pursuing aggressive growth. B2C typically spends more than B2B. Early-stage companies often spend a higher share to build awareness, then normalize as they scale.
FAQ
Questions
Is marketing budget based on revenue or profit?
Usually a percentage of gross revenue (projected or trailing). Some teams budget against gross profit instead, which is more conservative for low-margin businesses.
