New economic conditions have led to innovations in retail industries, such as more dynamic retail approaches based on flexible strategies. We propose and compare different approaches incorporating nonlinear methods for promotional decision-making using retail aggregated data registered at the point of the sale. Specifically, this paper describes a reliable quantification tool as an effective information system leveraged on recent and historical data that provides managers with an operative vision. Furthermore, a new set of indicators are proposed to evaluate the reliability and stability of the data model in the multidimensional feature space by using nonparametric resampling techniques. This allows the user to make a clearer comparison among linear, nonlinear, static, and dynamic data models, and to identify the uncertainty of different feature space regions, for example, corresponding to the most frequent deal features. This methodology allows retailers to use aggregated data in suitable conditions that will result in acceptable confidence intervals.
