Why buynomics is the best solution for trade term optimization

Unmatched speed
Once we have set up your Virtual Customers, there are no limits. Within minutes you can analyse any number of different scenarios in order to determine your next best move or to evaluate the effects of a competitor action and how to respond. No need for lengthy conjoint studies, consulting projects or outdated and inaccurate price elasticities.

Full transparency
buynomics shows you how different choices impact you as well as your retailers. This enables you to anticipate better how they will react given their portfolio of products and individual target KPIs.Our platform not only considers the demand side given your own and competitors’ offerings, but also enables you to incorporate your internal and distribution cost structure to consider product-specific margin effects on your bottom line (see why conventional methods fail to deliver pricing value here).

Win-win-situations
Trade term negotiations don’t need to be a zero-sum-game. With buynomics’ transparency and actionable insights you can determine how both you and the retailer benefit from changes and share excess returns amongst yourselves.
