• Manage trade budgets, negotiate vendor rates, and track ROI per activation (sell-out uplift, CPT/CPM, cost per store).

• Run promoter enablement: counters, visual toolkits, demo assets, and training inputs.

• Track competitive activity and visibility share; recommend counter-moves by market.

• Report weekly on execution, spends vs. plan, and impact metrics.
