Quick Tips
When you come across a stat, chart, or report that you find interesting, go ahead and download it as an Excel file, image file, or PDF right away. We've found that the shareable links on the right-hand side of the screen do not bring you back to the individual page via Pepperdine's access.
Use eMarketer to track down better data. Alongside each chart, eMarketer provides citations for their data sources, which often include proprietary sources that either aren't available or expensive to access. Recently, one of our librarians was able to assist a Graziadio faculty member find the data they needed using eMarketer.
Incorporate eMarketer's charts into your next presentation or project for enhanced
visual impact. Many of our marketing students who work on projects with real-world
clients find that the visuals offered through eMarketer bring polish and professionalism
to their client presentations.
