New Pentane Feature for Managing Tariff Impact & Profitability

  • Access the Command Center Dashboard: Start in the executive dashboard to track key KPIs and metrics relevant to your business’s financial performance.

  • Navigate to the Guidance System: Move to the guidance system, which integrates expense, revenue, and advertising data via APIs, pulling in real-time business spending and earnings.

  • Set Your Profit Goal: Define your profit target (e.g., break-even or a 10% net margin) and select a timeframe (e.g., 30 days) to align with your business objectives.

  • Adjust Ad Budget with Slider: Use the slider to increase or decrease your ad budget, revealing the minimum return on ad spend (ROAS) needed to achieve your profit goal.

  • Compare with Historical Data: View last period’s performance (e.g., $59K ad spend, 5.17 ROAS, $305K sales, 36.6% contribution margin, $19K net profit, 0.79 conversion rate) for a historical benchmark.

  • Factor in Tariffs: Add tariff impacts (e.g., a 30% tariff on cost of goods, automatically tracked via APIs) to see how performance metrics must adjust to maintain profitability.

  • Test Pricing and Expense Scenarios: Experiment with pricing changes (e.g., a 20% price increase, dropping conversion rate from 0.79 to 0.64) or expense cuts to understand their effects on ROAS and conversion rates.

  • Visualize and Track Results: Use the dashboard to graphically view KPIs, add trend lines, or layer data to identify trends and overlaps, helping you monitor the impact of your adjustments over time.
