Plan for Future with EA’s Outsourced Trade Promotions Management

Shield your Trade Promotion campaigns against poor ROIs with Expertise Accelerated’s support on their planning and execution.

As turbulence grows across the markets worldwide, input cost hikes and margins squeeze, the fight for competitive foothold intensifies among the consumer goods (CG) companies, and hence the strategic and tactical significance of Trade Promotions Management (TPM).

However, bringing about synchronization and congruity among the underlying complex variables that define the success of TPM campaigns requires a high degree of expert interaction among all the stakeholders – manufacturers, distributors and retailers – as well as the concerned departments within the organization – finance, planning and sales – which is neither easy to achieve nor practical for many CG companies.

Expertise Accelerated can leverage its global talent pool to provide you with offshore resources that can fill in the capacity gap and shield your TPM campaigns against poor ROIs.
