Trade Promotion Consulting

As the second largest item on your P&L, trade promotion has clear impacts to your bottomline, not to mention your brand and retailer relationships. We work with our clients to demystify trade promotion, optimize spend, and drive profit.

Trade spend may be a bigger value driver than you think.

Spending trade dollars is easy. Planning, budgeting, and evaluating what you get for that spend is hard. Not ‘rocket science’ hard, but requiring thoughtful planning and execution among several people and systems. Once you have the basics in place, you can unlock a ton of value by getting the whole team – sales, marketing, finance, and executives – to examine and understand the analytics that will drive meaningful and optimized decisions and outcomes.
