The Opportunity

Promotions remain one of retailing’s key levers to drive traffic, sales and profitability. However, fierce competition and the value-oriented shopper are forcing retailers to rethink their promotional strategy and practices. Many companies have come to the realization that traditional promotions deliver traditional results. They are discovering that innovative promotional techniques (price and non-price oriented), enveloped by a great promotional strategy encourage favorable shopper behavior, build loyalty and provide real growth. These leading retailers also recognize that a highly effective promotional program requires leadership, investment and new capabilities.
