Trade Marketing Governance Multi-Level Framework

TM governance often defaults to a single tier — leaving operational issues debated by senior leadership and strategic issues lost in operational reviews.
TM Checklist – Local to Regional Trade Marketing Alignment

Local TM execution often drifts from regional strategy — leaving regional leadership without confidence that local markets are pulling in the same direction.
Simple Trade Marketing Budget

TM budget templates often arrive overcomplicated — leaving teams stuck on structure rather than allocation. A simple budget gets the job done faster.
Expanded Trade Marketing Tactics Decision Matrix

TM tactic selection is often default-based — leaving teams reaching for the same mechanic regardless of context.
Trade Marketing Responsibilities by Domain

TM responsibilities often blur across roles — leaving teams unclear about who owns what at the operational level.
Trade Marketing Expenses and Codes

Trade Marketing expense classification often varies between markets, teams, and submissions — leaving finance with data that can’t be aggregated or compared.
Trade Marketing Effectiveness Scorecard

Trade Marketing effectiveness is often discussed narratively — leaving leadership without a scored, comparable view of the function’s performance.
Trade Marketing Retail Profile

Retailer briefings often default to descriptive narrative without the structured profile that supports activation decisions.
Sales and Marketing Audit Plan

Sales and Marketing function audits often produce general observations without the structured framework needed to drive capability investment decisions.
Trade Marketing Calendar Plan (Sample)

TM calendars are often built from scratch every year without a reference structure — producing calendars that look organised but miss critical activity layers.
