Mark-ups and margin. What’s the difference?

Not a lot. Just the difference between a profit and a loss. Just the difference in distribution. Just the difference in range. Just the difference in a successful negotiation.

In this high impact and interactive session, we will focus on some critical numbers when negotiating with the retailer in the Australian FMCG environment.

 The three critical points of negotiation – the best, acceptable, and worst deal

 The three perception positions – “mine”, “theirs”, and objective

 Distribution chain and areas to impact

 Channel architecture in the Australian environment

 Mark-up, margin, and why the difference matters

 Participant calculations

 COGS, margins and Shelf Price

 Margins, Stock turns and Gross Product Profit

Bring a calculator, or your phone - you’ll be working on practical calculations with a workbook to guide you through. You’ll be surprised by the simplicity of some of the answers, and the difference they’ll make for your business outcomes in Australia.
