How AI Algorithms Can Enhance Promo Policy
ML algorithms can help retailers manage promo better in several ways. For example, by processing historical promo records, the algorithms enable data-driven evaluations of past promo campaigns and provide insights contributing to the future promos' sustainability.
One of the most reliable approaches to disclosing the genuine business impact of the promo is to analyze the vertical and horizontal sales cannibalization effects. Practically, it means finding how promo contributed to product stockpiling (horizontal cannibalization) as well as changes in sales dynamics of non-promotional products in the entire category (vertical cannibalization). For such an analysis at scale, advanced ML algorithms are indispensable.
