Make your promotions more effective with Data Science

Maximise returns on promotions with Data Science

Creating promotions that Shoppers respond to positively is increasingly challenging for CPGs. With so many tactics to choose from and a lack of clear insight into what works and what doesn’t, CPGs end up repeating historic offers reducing the potential sales uplift as a result.

Our Data Science identifies the drivers of promotion performance and our analytics tools give the recommendations to plan successful promotions accordingly. Combined, it means that CPGs enjoy promotions that deliver growth, and Shoppers enjoy relevant offers.
