Some things you just can't control as a CMO. If the last few years have taught us anything, it's that external factors can arise and can be difficult to plan for.

And when these external factors have a major impact on the economic wellbeing of your brand, you may have to make some difficult decisions related to your three main responsibilities as a marketing leader: the brand, your customers, and your team.
