Due-to analysis - promotions evaluation

Exhibit 17.17   Due-to analysis for a brand.

Marketing mix Models use statistical analysis to decompose sales into the baseline and each of the factors driving sales. For instance, Exhibit 17.16, which pertains to a promotions evaluation analysis, illustrates the incremental gains arising from price discounts, banded packs, displays, cooperative advertising and competitive effects.

Once the sales are decomposed, a ‘Due-to’ analysis, such as the one shown in Exhibit 17.17, can be performed to reveals the impact of each element of the marketing mix on year-on-year sales. The chart reveals the incremental shifts in volume due to causal factors, as well as the shifts in base volume due to regular price, advertising and distribution.
