PHILADELPHIA, PA October 2009 Sagefrog Marketing Group, a full service marketing, interactive and public relations company, announced the results of their fourth annual Marketing Mix Survey that shows over 50% of companies use both outsourced and in-house marketing.
Conducted during the summer of 2009, the survey drew responses from 250 marketing professionals from health, technology and business-to-business companies and includes four year marketing trends.
Despite the economy, more than half of businesses continue to spend 10% or more of their budget on marketing. The majority of their budget allotment is spent on website development and online marketing.

78% of companies have a marketing plan, up from 56% in 2008
