Trying to land a major retailer or increase sales in stores you are selling to now? Retailer incentive programs can help you get there faster. Power Brands can design a retail program or a complete beverage marketing plan for you!
In order to get more shelf space, it is very effective to offer some sort of incentive program directly to the retailer.
Often it is a good strategy to begin by giving a free case of product to the retailer and have them try the product for themselves. Once they have sampled the beverage, they will be much more inclined to purchase. A “buy two cases get one free” inducement can also yield a satisfactory end result. Additionally, offering incentives like coupons, promotions, guaranteed sale, and distributor bill-back can be just the positive push the retailer needs to agree to sell your beverage.
When offering an incentive program to retailers, it is important to consider several things. Knowing your audience is important and can be achieved with an in-store customer survey. Once this knowledge is gained, it can be utilized to assess the most effective method of incentive. Budget evaluation is an important part of planning an incentive program as well. Incentives cost money short term but the long term gain ideally outweighs these costs. Request Free Information >
