For brands, managing the relationship with key retailers is a critical and challenging task that all too often gets bogged down in tactical discussions about spending commitments, product pricing, and basic promotional support. But moving beyond those low-level dynamics to establish truly collaborative, business-building partnerships is a strategic imperative for brands looking to drive sustainable growth.
Mars United Commerce outlines a unique strategy brands can use to leverage every interaction — from weekly buyer calls to annual top-to-top meetings — to enhance their status at every level of the retailer organization and elevate the relationship from transactional to transformational for both parties.

Brands and retailers partake in joint business planning every year and there is no standard process or framework for how it should be done. It often becomes a disjointed and transactional process but as brands and retailers need to collaborate more closely there are some best practices that can be followed to make it a valuable discussion.
Learn from joint research the Digital Shelf Institute and Microsoft Advertising did interviewing brands and retailers about their JBP process.

A category captain has historically been defined as both 1) a high-performing supplier in a particular category AND 2) an unbiased partner collaborating directly with retailers to share relevant consumer insights, advise on shopper experience and category effectiveness, pilot new opportunities and capabilities and help accelerate mutual growth and profitability.
What does category captaincy mean now for an omni marketplace? What should captains be doing on their own to accelerate shopper experience and category growth? How should captains advise their retailers and engage them for more support and collaboration? How should captains measure their performance and contributions to continuously validate their captaincy?
In this session, we’ll go deeper into what this looks like and how you can sail the seven seas of omni joint value creation.
