Threshold Impact

Definition

The minimum level of distribution, merchandising support, or marketing activity required for a CPG product to generate measurable sales lift or velocity. Below this threshold, efforts typically do not produce meaningful or sustained results.

How It's Calculated

Example

A new snack brand launches at 10% ACV with no displays and sees minimal sales. After expanding to 35% ACV and adding secondary displays, the product begins to show consistent weekly velocity—indicating it has reached threshold impact.
