What is RAMMP?
Definition
RAMMP is a marketing governance framework designed to diagnose trust in the buying journey before marketing budget is committed.
RAMMP runs a patented quantitative behavioural diagnostic that measures how buyers experience the decision process leading to purchase.
The diagnostic evaluates structural trust stability across defined checkpoints in the buying journey and produces quantitative indicators that determine whether marketing investment is feasible.
RAMMP exists to introduce governance into marketing investment decisions.
Why RAMMP Exists
Marketing is often the only major organisational budget approved without diagnostic validation.
Other forms of capital deployment require formal risk assessment.

RAMMP introduces a governance mechanism that evaluates whether marketing investment assumptions are structurally valid before capital is deployed.
The RAMMP Diagnostic
RAMMP runs a Pre-Spend Diagnostic before marketing budget is committed.
The diagnostic evaluates buyer behaviour across defined Trust Checkpoints in the buying journey.
These checkpoints represent the sequential stages through which buyers evaluate credibility, risk and purchase readiness.
See: Trust Checkpoints
RAMMP Measurements
The diagnostic produces two primary indicators.
Buyer Trust Score
A composite measurement of trust stability across the buying journey.
See: Buyer Trust Score (BTS)
Revenue Feasibility Index
An indicator showing whether marketing investment can produce reliable revenue outcomes.
See: Revenue Feasibility Index (RFI)
RAMMP Verdict Protocol
All diagnostics resolve into four governance verdicts.
STOP
KEEP
FIX
PROVE
See: STOP FIX KEEP PROVE
These verdicts determine whether marketing activity should:
stop immediately
continue unchanged
repair a specific trust failure
validate behavioural response
