Simon – Kucher Session:

Thursday, April 17 | 10:40 am - 11:25 am 
Raising the Ceiling and Raising the Floor on Promotion Optimization Leveraging AI Tools While Addressing Core Barriers to Success

Presented by: Ellen Kan, Partner, Simon-Kucher

Many companies in the CPG sector still struggle to execute effective promotional strategies. The root causes often lie in common pitfalls: unreliable data inputs, failure to integrate a strategic perspective, misalignment with broader brand and portfolio priorities, an overemphasis on undifferentiated short-term ROI metrics, and insufficient resources or customer team enablement.

This presentation will explore both what AI can address—through case studies and use cases—and, just as importantly, what it cannot fix. Addressing deeper barriers to success will require an organizational shift toward end-to-end strategic promotion management and we will outline what this looks like. Ultimately a strong strategic foundation and cutting-edge technology work together to unlock the full potential of your promotional efforts.
