    • Align with Brand Managers to ensure timely delivery of creative materials.
    • Execute brand-aligned stall setups and event branding with required approvals.
    • Ensure prompt delivery of event inventories and marketing materials.
    • Track and evaluate planned vs. actual ROI for all events and activations.
  • Reporting & Administration
    • Compile and share dashboards, sales trackers, activity timelines, and other necessary documentation.
    • Conduct performance evaluations of promotions using estimated ROI, field feedback, and available data sources.
  • Market Audits & Trade Visits
    • Visiting Visit points of sale regularly to validate implementation, visibility standards, and shelf share objectives.
    • Audit key visibility initiatives and submit timely reports.
    • Conduct periodic trade visits to collect market insights, assess the execution of new launches, and address any identified issues.
  • Monitoring & Market Activity
    • Track developments in the external market, including activities by peer brands and their potential business impact.
