About this template
Measure the real effectiveness of your promotions: net uplift, ROI, cannibalization and incremental margin. Designed for teams in the Retail industry, the model pre-wires 4 key metrics — including Promo uplift and Promotional ROI — analyzable across 3 analysis axes (Promotion, Category, Store). You start from an already-bounded base (units, aggregations and business labels defined) rather than a blank sheet.
After downloading, import Promotional performance into SAC Modeler (Files → New Model → Import data from a file), map the 3 dimensions and 4 measures, then build your Story. The provided dataset contains 720 to 960 rows with realistic values for the Retail industry, available as .xlsx (multi-sheet workbook), .csv (flat table) and .package (ZIP bundle with model.json, data.csv and README).
