1. Management by Exception: (MBE) is a managerial approach that focuses on identifying and addressing significant deviations or exceptions from standard performance. Instead of monitoring all stores equally, the regional manager prioritizes attention on exceptional cases that deviate significantly from established benchmarks.

2. Critical Point Control: It involves closely monitoring specific key performance indicators (KPIs) or KRA's that have a significant impact on overall sales performance. Managers use this technique to identify critical points where immediate action is necessary to prevent potential crises or losses.
