Published
2020-09-25

Abstract

Marketing Audit as a concept has been hailed across the world as a highly useful tool for helping the overall marketing function. This article is a systematic literature review of research in marketing audit spread over two five-year periods, 2010-14 and 2015-19. The focus of the literature review was on the type of research – conceptual, empirical and mix. Using Google Scholar, 50 items of literature each, related to marketing audit, from the two periods were selected for analysis. Trends show that there is a shift in research interest from conceptual research to empirical research. Additionally, the research is becoming more and more specialized with country-specific and single-unit applications. It would be of interest to find out the reasons for this change.
