The Consumer Goods Cloud: Trade Promotion Management (TPM) Accredited Professional exam validates specialized expertise in configuring and managing trade promotions using Salesforce Consumer Goods Cloud. It covers the full trade promotion lifecycle — planning, budgeting, execution, settlement, and post-event analysis — that consumer packaged goods companies use to manage billions in annual trade spend.
The Promotion Planning domain weighs in at 25%, covering promotion creation, tactics, conditions, and calendar management. With 25% of the exam, Fund Management demands serious preparation, covering budgets, fund allocation, spending tracking, and accrual management. Questions on execution and tracking make up 20% of the test, covering promotion execution, compliance monitoring, and volume tracking. These high-weight domains should anchor your study plan and receive the deepest attention.
The remaining sections balance the blueprint. Settlement and Claims carries the heaviest weight at 20%, which spans post-event analysis, claims processing, deductions, and reconciliation. A full 10% of the exam targets analytics and optimization, which spans promotion ROI, trade spend analytics, and planning insights. While narrower in scope, questions in these domains test applied judgment that crosses objective boundaries.
