Vividly is the leading modern trade promotion management (TPM) solution built by and for the consumer packaged goods industry. From campaign creation to deductions management and promotion measurement, we help brands manage every element of trade spend. With our easy-to-use platform and industry-leading experience, we pride ourselves on our ability to bring businesses to the next level.

Not familiar with trade promotion spend? That’s OK. Most people aren’t. It’s an $8 trillion dollar problem that is ripe for disruption by an innovative SaaS startup. In order to grow, consumer packaged goods (CPG) brands spend 20% of their topline revenue to get into retailers and promote their products within those retailers. The problem is that today 70% of those promotions are not ROI positive. This is because ROI is hard to track. The industry operates on emails, pdfs, and xls spreadsheets. At Vividly, we’re solving this massive problem with exciting tactics including AI, Machine Learning, and Fintech and adding value to everyone in the chain. Some of our customers include brands you may use and love - Liquid Death, Amy’s, and Laird Superfoods.

Commitment to our values - The Vividly Code

• Kind Ambition: We are ambitious but our desire to succeed does not mean unkind or unethical behavior. We push boundaries, deny norms and experiment. We do that with kindness. We are empathetic to the struggles and challenges other functions face.
• Keep it Real: We do not have time for games or politics. We are honest, transparent, and authentic. We celebrate our differences and our similarities with equal enthusiasm.
• Customer Love: The customer is at the heart of every decision - we love our customers. Everything starts and ends with them. We actively listen and anticipate their needs. We are trusted advisors. That sometimes requires tough love.
• Own It: We take responsibility for our work, our successes, and our failures. When we see something that needs to be done, we do it. If we can’t do it, we own finding somebody that can. Ownership helps us grow - be receptive if the right owner is you!
• Urgency Wins: We work with purpose and speed. We know that shorter time to value makes our customers more successful. We constantly wonder how we can do it faster. We fix things that are slowing us down, while still maintaining excellence. We know that the vast majority of decisions are reversible - we make them quickly.
• Pull Together: We reach our goals faster when pulling in the same direction. We actively seek alignment - but not necessarily consensus. Siloed thinking is unwelcome and drives defensiveness and unhelpful friction. When things go wrong, we pull together to fix them.
