Campaign Optimization

Generate an Optimal Promotion Campaign From Scratch

Tell Vividly your budget, your objective, and your constraints — the AI handles the rest.The optimizer evaluates every possible combination of weeks, price points, and parameters across your entire planning horizon, then selects the campaign that best achieves your goal.

• Choose your objective: maximize ROI, volume, or gross margin
• Set total campaign budget and spend rate constraints
• AI pre-computes lift and volume forecasts for every candidate week
• Review proposed promotions with full spend, revenue, and ROI breakdowns

Promotion Replanning

Replan Your Entire Calendar When Budgets Change

Mid-year budget cuts or windfalls shouldn't mean days of manual rework.

Select the promotions you need to change, enter your new budget constraints, and let Vividly's optimizer generate a revised campaign that makes the most of what you have.

• Select any combination of pending, submitted, or approved promotions to replan
• Enter new budget and constraints and the optimizer does the rest
• Compare original vs. replanned promotions side by side in the scenario profile
• Start over at any point without losing your original plan

Scenario Planning

Plan and Compare Before You Commit

Not ready to go live? Build it in a scenario first.

Scenario planning lets you create and compare multiple campaign strategies before a single promotion hits your live plan.

• Create unlimited scenarios to model different strategies
• View expected spend, revenue, gross margin, ROI, and trade rate per promotion and per scenario
• Associate replanned promotions with a scenario for direct before/after comparison
• Run the optimizer on any scenario to immediately see an improved version
• Import winning scenarios to your live plan with one click

Review & Refine

AI Recommends, You Decide

The optimizer makes recommendations. You make the final call.

After the AI generates your campaign, you have full visibility into every proposed promotion and complete flexibility to adjust, remove, or edit before anything goes live.

• Review proposed promotions with full spend, revenue, gross margin, and ROI breakdowns
• Edit any optimized promotion via master edit before saving, adjust dates, rates, or parameters as needed
• Budget, customers, and product groups are auto-populated from your existing scenario, no manual setup required
• Save the optimized campaign as a scenario to keep iterating before committing to the live plan
• Import only when you're ready - nothing touches your live plan until you say so

Don't Take Our Word For It

How Health-Ade Recovered $700K and Transformed Their Deduction Process with Vividly

“In past years we weren't disputing much because we were resource-constrained and lacked tools to help manage the volume. In 2024 we disputed $1.1M in deductions and successfully recovered $700K. Having Vividly made a significant improvement.”

Claudia Ogaz, VP, Corporate Controller
How Liquid Death Is Enhancing Efficiency with Vividly's Custom Netsuite Integration

"Working with Vividly was a fantastic experience. Their attention to detail and willingness to listen and iterate made the process seamless. The custom integration has significantly improved our operations, and we are thrilled with the results."

“It sounds simple, but for us, the game-changer was being able to match the sales plan with the actual deductions that were coming in. Being able to do it all in one system meant we could plan and forecast all we wanted.”

Zack Wierenga, Senior Trade Manager
Waterloo Sparkling Water

“We're able to manage the business like a big CPG company manages their business with about 5% of the resources. Vividly allows us to be more thoughtful about the decisions and make those decisions much faster.”
