If sales were booming would you be talking about terminating your ad agency??

The few cases that I know of when ad agencies were terminated (high tech firms), the marketing dept. was entirely responsible and had no immediate visibility to the current numbers. It is not a decision made lightly since the current relationship took time to build. If Amzn had 2 weak quarters in a row then perhaps there might be some correlation... but we know Dec. was a blowout, Jan of course was much weaker to be expected, there isnt enough data in Feb and 1/2 of Mar to terminate an agency just on the basis of sales for that period alone.

Sorry to state the obvious.... but someone has to do it!
