How to reduce the cannibalistic effects of promotions?


The most recent benchmark data from Accuris indicates that, in the UK, cannibalisation wipes out, on average, 17% of the additional sales volume created by promotions.

The strategies to reduce the cannibalistic impact of promotions should include:

  • Avoiding shallow discounts,

  • Stopping ‘one size fits all’ promotions,

  • Refraining from single unit promotions

  • Circumventing promotions leading to a downgrade in purchase weight or value.
