The problem it solves

A case that finance sends back is a case with a number nobody can trace. Here every figure on a slide is a cell in the workbook: the waterfall, the doors × velocity forecast, NPV, IRR, payback, the four sensitivities and the hard gates.

Who it is for

Brand manager, portfolio lead, finance business partner in consumer healthcare, writing for a Gulf market and presenting to a regional or global team. Also the distributor marketer who co-writes it.

How the example helps

Every example is set in one fictional world: Meridian Consumer Health, its distributor Northern Gulf Distribution Co., the scalp-care brand Clarisel and its competitors Scalvia, Sebravel, Scalpex and Trichoderm. Nahdi, Al-Dawaa and United are real Saudi pharmacy chains used as market fixtures with invented figures. You see every box filled, every chart populated and every number reconciled, without a real company's data.

Not for

Prescription brands with a medical-affairs plan, agencies pitching creative work, or anyone who needs a company's proprietary template. The structure is the practice of the industry; the words, charts and numbers are original.
