Get a high-level promotional calendar organized around defined promotional windows across the year. It helps teams align timing, priorities, and rationale without drifting into executional detail. Use this to guide annual planning, trade conversations, and cross-functional alignment.
Create a promotional calendar for a summer campaign, a special holiday like Valentine's Day, Black Friday, or Christmas, or any moment that's important to your brand. These calendars allow your entire team to see new ideas inspired by the best practices of the top CPG companies in the world and provide new resources to your retailers and benefits to your customers so they purchase your product at the right time in the right place.
Each promotional window has clear timing (e.g., June Finals, Sept–Nov, January, February 14, April), a priority (High or Medium), and a rationale that explains the strategic thinking. Provide any known peak sales periods or past promotional learnings to guide which windows deserve higher priority. Indicate what the shopper is typically thinking during these moments: health reset, gifting, indulgence, or convenience.
