Tool's Overview

The Distribution Channel Selector Tool is built to give Trade Marketing and channel teams a structured, disciplined way to select the right channels for a brand, category, or SKU.

It replaces inconsistent commercial debate with a defensible, evidence-based approach that produces clear decisions, repeatable methodology, and a foundation for future learning.

What This Tool Does

This tool enables Trade Marketing and channel teams to:

  • Score channels on fit, reach, profitability, and execution feasibility
  • Identify which channels deserve focused investment
  • Build a defensible channel-go-to-market plan
  • Avoid channel-by-default — work to channel-by-design

It moves the underlying commercial conversation from opinion to evidence.

When to Use This Tool

This tool is typically used when:

  • New brand or category launch
  • Annual channel strategy review
  • Reviewing channel investment allocation
  • Pre-acquisition channel strategy

Who Should Use This Tool

This tool is intended for:

  • Trade Marketing Managers
  • Channel Heads
  • Category and Brand Managers

It is equally relevant for brand owners and distributors operating across multiple categories and channels.

How the Tool Is Structured

The tool is organised into 5 clear working sections:

  • Cover – branded front sheet
  • Terms of Use – IP and licence
  • Instructions – step-by-step guidance
  • Selector – channel scoring grid
  • Reference Guide – scoring definitions

This ensures the tool is immediately usable, decision-oriented, and defensible in commercial reviews.

Positioning Note

This tool is most effective when used as part of a annual channel strategy review, rather than as a one-off exercise. Applied consistently, it builds a multi-year picture of performance and protects scarce commercial investment from flowing on inertia.
