Challenges in the Retail Industry

Effects of 2007-2008 global economic meltdown continue to restrict consumer spending

Pronounced 15% to 45% decrease in customer loyalty over the last 3 years

Private labels are not reverting market share to global brands as they typically have in past economic recoveries

Lower margins are now forecasted for most product categories due to increase in commodities and materials costs

Emergence of a fickle consumer demand chain as a results of inflationary pressures and decrease in real wealth

Continuing economic volatility due to world events is proving challenging to even short-term planning and growth

Declines in same-store sales and stock prices

Page 6: Maxxing Solution Overview

Promotions Have Helped Mitigate These Challenges

81% of all consumer spending over the last 3 years has revolved around the use of coupons and promotions (NCH)

78% percent of consumers indicate that price and promotion is now the most important factor in buying decisions (IBM)

Consumers spend 56% more on a market basket of goods with coupons than without coupons (IBM)

57% of consumers would not have purchased an item without an associated promotion or coupon (NCH)

Consumers will repeat purchase an item 91% of the time if they receive a promotion connected with that item (NCH)

Page 7: Maxxing Solution Overview

Marketers Struggle with Traditional Promotions Efforts

True effectiveness of current trade promotions practices is consistently debated

“One-size-fits-all” of mass promotions and manufacturers coupons leave money (i.e. margin) “on the table” and fails to create lasting customer affinity

Typical promotions approaches surrounding new retailers, stores or products fail to initiate the “awareness/trial repeat/upsell” cycle

Lack of multi-channel coordination and consistency with promotional campaigns is creating consumer dissatisfaction

Confusion as to the role and true effectiveness of emerging marketing channels is distracting

Capabilities to share promotions results and consumer insight with trading partners are severely lacking

Page 8: Maxxing Solution Overview

Targeted Offers Have Greater Impact

Increase in Revenue and Market Share -Increase Revenue

-Sell Higher Margin Products

-Decrease Time-to-Market

-Attack New Markets

Consumers purchase an average of $131 per basket of goods with mass promotions and $241 per basket of goods with targeted promotions (IBM)

Targeted coupon redemption rates are 4 to 5 times higher than those of conventional mass promotion efforts (Ipsos)

Retailers can experience an increase of almost 10% in customer loyalty with a targeted offer deployment strategy (Clarkston)

A 5% increase in customer loyalty can result in a 25% increase in profitability (McKinsey)

Decrease in COGS and Operating Costs -Reduce Inventory

-Reduce Logistics Expenses

-Reduce Sales and Marketing Expenses

-Reduce Direct Materials Expenses

Acquiring new customers can cost as much as 5 times that of regaining an existing ones (CMO Council)

A 10% increase in promotions effectiveness can lead to a 15% to 20% decrease in overall marketing costs (Clarkston)

With precision analysis on consumer trends, developments and spending patterns during targeted promotions campaigns, sourcing and merchandising expenses can be reduced by over 10% (BCG)

Excess inventory, stock outs and demand volatility can effectively be mitigated by targeted promotions and the market intelligence learned through their execution (Cap Gemini)

Targeted Promotions Capabilities are Not Optimal

Efforts via customer loyalty programs have largely failed to increase brand affinity and drive desired consumer behavior

Reliance upon marketing agencies, outsourcing firms, or coupon services do not allow companies to “get close” to the customer

Micro segments are dramatically decreasing the effectiveness of traditional promotions efforts

Lack of real-time capabilities to create and adjust offers, as well as deploy new promotions in reaction to dynamic events have an adverse impact upon the enterprise

Multi-channel deployment is typically inconsistent in offer, price, limitation, etc. and leads to customer frustration

Effects of mismanaged promotions efforts have far- reaching financial impacts upon business operations
