1 case in 1 bar is better than 1 bottle in 6 bars
True, it doesn't happen overnight
But that should be what you aim for
Distribution vs Rate of Sale. The two aspects go hand in hand.
Brands should drive profitability ahead of availability: it's all about the pricing strategy.
It's easy to push distribution if you have the muscle in the market, but not at the right RRP (Recommended Retail Price).
if you widen the distribution, your average ROS will go down. It's normal.
if your brand has a too-wide distribution at a higher rate than you built rotation, you've probably started discounting to convince the trade to take your product.
You are mainstreamizing your brand, instead of giving it time to be assimilated by the trade. It's easy to put the price down, it's tough to bring it up.
