Drive customer loyalty
Attract new customers and strengthen existing brand loyalty by offering the most compelling promotional offers based on customer interests, demographics, and location. Have confidence you’re getting promotional campaigns in front of buyers at the right time, via the right channels.
Improve promotion planning collaboration across teams
Most supply chain software doesn’t accommodate for promotion planning, leaving planners struggling to incorporate spreadsheet-based marketing guesstimates into their demand planning.
Promotion management software breaks down those barriers: Marketing can plan promotional activity in an easy-to-use interface, while predictive analytics ensure the supply planning team has the information required for their demand forecasting needs. Understanding the impact of price changes and other promotional activities supports retail inventory optimization and assortment planning with the right level of stock, at the right retail locations, at the right time.
Increase revenue and lower costs for maximum ROI
Even if overall stock levels are sufficient, improper inventory management and allocation planning can lead to lost sales. Get promotion planning software that works in partnership with powerful demand forecasting backed by machine learning to place the right products in the right places for maximum gross margins.
Manage complex promotional campaigns with ease
Product line expansion, new ecommerce sales channels, promotion pricing, and ever-changing customer needs all combine to make promotion forecasting no easy feat. With ToolsGroup Promotion Management software, you can smoothly and accurately predict the impact of future promotions on both revenue and the supply chain, and streamline promotion management across all aspects of product life cycle pricing.
Protect retailer reputation and increase customer satisfaction
Promotional campaigns can harm brand reputation when marketing offers aren’t viable due to product mix, production capacity, supply chain constraints, or sales promotion complexity.

Promotion management software features
Promotion forecasting
Forecasting promotion uplift is tough when demand signals, lead times, and other factors can vary significantly at the channel or store level.
ToolsGroup Promotion Management software utilizes machine learning to automate the complex promotional planning process. A marketing-friendly view gives your marketing, advertising, and demand planning teams the ability to collaborate on promotion management, campaign optimization, and retail execution.
Promotions performance simulation
Our retail promotion management software provides advanced analytics and a fast, simple way merchandising, marketing, and advertising professionals can forecast category impact.
ToolsGroup Promotion Management software evaluates the many variables surrounding promotional planning–including lead time and other supply chain constraints–to provide an instant assessment of promotion performance and the rationale behind it. Sales planning that leverages these predictive analytics ensures retailers are able to maximize ROI and revenue growth.
Cross-functional promotion execution
Marketers and merchandisers can streamline the planning process and safely manage, update, and track all retail promotional activity–including media mix, visual layouts, demographics, and budget–within a simple interface. Supply chain teams can adapt their inventory management in sync, maximizing revenue growth by ensuring products are correctly allocated to meet demand on a daily basis, down to the store level.
Promotions workflow
Allocate user permissions to access promotional data by groups (such as country or region) so marketing teams can focus on what matters most in promotion management, avoiding distractions from irrelevant information.
The software guides you through the promotion planning process. A promotional events calendar displays all past and future events in a single interface, giving you a post-event analysis to understand the ROI of past promotions. This historical data, combined with the ability to filter, edit, and explore the uplift per promotion, helps you identify opportunities for maximum revenue growth.
Promotions repository
Marketers just getting started with promotion planning can create a well-structured repository of promotions–a must when using promotional data to enhance the demand planning process. More mature organizations with a well-established, collaborative promotion management process can apply machine learning to reduce uncertainty and increase forecast accuracy for all departments involved in the promotional cycle.
