AdCheck enables retailers to protect their programs by reducing losses associated with promotions and coupons. Many grocers, drug stores and other retailers run weekly promotional circulars – increasing the probability that losses will occur due to improper training, systemic issues or other operational inefficiencies. Agilence’s AdCheck service ensures that weekly circular offers are entered correctly into the POS system and that store employees are properly executing the promotions at the point-of-sale.

AdCheck runs specific queries to monitor and investigate the promotions as they begin, reporting back inconsistencies, errors and training issues within hours of the ad break.  Other tools might not detect these issues until the promotion is finished – after significant losses have taken place.

EXAMPLE: Recently, one of Agilence’s larger grocery customers was offering a buy-one, get-one free promotion that was incorrectly input into the POS system. Utilizing AdCheck, the grocer was quickly alerted to the fact that cashiers chain-wide were “correcting” the problem by bypassing the scanner as they bagged the second item. Without quickly identifying this issue, the grocer would have had  inaccurate inventory records and would not be reimbursed by the vendor sponsoring the BOGO promotion.
