264. You're losing cash every month to trade deductions—and you probably don't even know it. If 6–10% of deductions are invalid and 70% of trade spend is ineffective, that's not a small leak… that's lost runway, lost growth, and lost negotiating power with retailers.

In this episode, I sit down with Yuval Selik of Promomash to unpack one of the most overlooked profit killers in CPG: deduction mismanagement. We break down where deductions come from, how they quietly erode your promotional ROI, and why even $100M brands get this wrong. More importantly, we walk through a simple framework to reconcile, recover, and protect your cash flow—so you can stop fundraising and start building.

If you care about profitability, valuation, and sustainable growth, this is a must-listen. Try the free Trade Promotion ROI Calculator and episode guide, and explore the related webinars and podcast episodes to go deeper into trade strategy and deduction prevention.
