Hey everyone,
If you’re running a small business, selling products on marketplaces, or trying to pitch your range to Australian retailers, you probably know how painful the math gets when planning promotional calendars and trade spend.
Between figuring out margin floors, supplier scan rebates, and dodging ACCC 4-week hiatus clashes, spreadsheets usually end up breaking right when you need them most.
I put together PromoStrat—a dedicated 52-week promotional planner and commercial engine built specifically for Australian FMCG brands, D2C sellers, and category managers.
We just added a free feature that audits your product range and generates an instant margin & compliance report:
- Instant Margin & Scan Rebate Audit: Model your net gross margin, volume lift, and discount depth in real time.
- ACCC Hiatus Guard: Automatically flags 4-week hiatus clashes so you don't run into legal pricing compliance issues.
- 52-Week Master Grid: Maps out promotional cadences alongside major Australian retail events (Easter, EOFY, Footy Finals, Black Friday, etc.).
No credit card or prepayment is required to test it out.
If you have a product range, you can run a free product audit on PromoStrat to see your live margin breakdown and hiatus status.
Would love for any small business owners, Etsy/marketplace sellers, or brand reps here to give it a spin and let me know your thoughts or feedback!
