When assessing a participant’s business or a retailer’s business, it starts with understanding how the overall business is performing – volume, share, profit, and growth – vs. targets and vs. competition. Once learners establish how the business is performing, they should tie it in with understanding what shopper behavior is driving the results. In this course, learners will gain the ability to create a vision or to understand the total enterprise and how the parts work.
