Validation run

Check the model against moves you already made

Ninety days, $9,000, credited toward an annual agreement. Before you rely on Geod for a live decision, see how it would have called the closures and conversions in your own history.

How it works

Your network
We load your stores and brands, and review the competitor set with you.
Past moves
Closures and conversions you already made are modeled against the network as it stood at the time.
Comparison
Where your sales history supports it, predictions are compared with what actually happened. Where it does not, we say so.
A live decision
A move you are weighing now, run the same way, so the committee sees the track record alongside it.

The scope, the moves to test and the schedule are agreed with you at the start. You keep the briefs and reports whether or not you continue.

A good fit if you have

  • A multi-brand franchisee or multi-unit operator with 100 or more units
  • A few recent closures, conversions or openings with store sales before and after
  • A decision in motion that you would like to bring to committee

Talk it through first

Bring the move you are weighing and a sense of the history you have. We will tell you whether a validation run makes sense.
