A Retailers playbook to assess, optimize & strategize promotions, providing a holistic view on true impact estimations while optimizing key levers like revenue, margin & ageing inventory.

Business Problem - Retailers earmark 20-40% of their topline to promotions. But 1 in 3 promos fail to achieve desired outcome and 59% of promotions fail to breakeven. Why is this happening?

  2. Promotion planning is a time consuming process. Planners spend most of their time on scheduling repeat promotions irrespective of their performance and don't have time to design new promotion campaigns
