Smucker Co.\u2019s true return on its investment in retail services.<\/li>\n<li>How cutting-edge technology, data and insights can enable highly customized, flexible retail execution to optimize results.<\/li>\n<li>How meticulous in-store execution can deliver the greatest sales impact.<\/li>\n<li>How to deploy resources to improve daily in-store conditions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cAs part of our overhaul of our commercial execution model, we identified an opportunity with Advantage to think differently,\u201d Tanner said. \u201cWe asked ourselves, what if we power execution with next-level thinking on analytics? Surely if we do this better than we have in the past, we should see significant improvement. And if we start doing this better than our competitors, this could turn into a real strategic advantage for us. And that was probably the biggest shift that we made as a company \u2014 how to think differently about retail.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That shift has paid off for Smucker, Tanner added, noting the company has calculated the new model has delivered $90 million in incremental sales.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTogether, Advantage and The J.M.
