We flip the traditional “top down” marketing pyramid to a “store back” model, leveraging data science to unlock hidden opportunities for brand growth.
Store-level growth plans influencing strategy, product focus, budget allocation, menu daypart emphasis, messaging and promotional offers.
Make promotional and budgeting decisions based on individual store characteristics, maximizing saliency and minimizing waste.
Develop store-specific programs based on current operational and promotional performance to increase traffic, average check and same store comp sales.
Leverage loyalty transactions and/or credit card data to establish guest profiles, unlocking enhanced segmentation, targeting and prospecting opportunities.
We know the considerations for CMOs continue to increase
exponentially — more competitors, more points of sale, more
media channels, more available data — but the expectations of leading with strategic clarity and delivering growth remain constant.
At SxS, we combine individual store transactions, as well as business and market considerations, to
provide single-store, market and system road maps
to drive the business forward. Our plans help you and your
agencies put learning into play, focusing your messages and
efforts on the right products, dayparts, days of week and offers
to drive growth.
