Optimize Resources Tied to Trade Promotion Management

In yesterday’s blog post (November 22), I touched on how the ContractPro® solution helps foodservice manufacturers mitigate risk in their trade promotion management process. Today I want to give an overview of how Answers Systems and the ContractPro solution help foodservice manufacturers optimize resources tied to trade promotion management.
 
The reality in today’s economic environment is that most organizations are having to do more with less – less people, less budget dollars, less time. Answers Systems addresses these area concerns with regard to managing trade spending challenges for the foodservice manufacturer:
  • Outsourced data acquisition, verification, reconciliation, and settlement removes administrative tasks:
    • Sales people can sell more
    • Corporate personnel can manage results instead of processes
  • Reporting allows corporate to
    • Manage market activity/broker performance more effectively due to greater visibility
    • Develop bonus programs based on key performance metrics
  • The ContractPro Community shared-efforts mean less time and money spent internally on initiatives such as:
    • EclaimSM electronic billback/claim acquisition
    • Unit-level data acquisition & reporting
