French term or phrase: force de frappe marketing et publicitaire conséquente
From a ppt presentation about a line of razors. The complete sentence reads:

Un marché très compétitif où la concurrence possède une force de frappe marketing et publicitaire conséquente.

Would that translate as "a significant marketing and publicity impact"?
