Shopper Psychology
OUR EXPERTISE IS GEARED TOWARD UNCOVERING THE SUBCONSCIOUS DRIVERS THAT INFLUENCE SHOPPERS’ BEHAVIOUR AND CHOICES. THESE INSIGHTS UNDERPIN OUR COMMUNICATION STRATEGIES
Shoppers are often bombarded with information when they walk into a store: from packaging cues to POP messaging, shelf layouts, price and promotions.
These subliminally shape perceptions and unconsciously alter behaviour, which is why what shoppers say and what they do are often very different.
Our focus on price and promotion in-store has driven rational as opposed to emotional choices. We need to understand what makes our shoppers tick in order to reconnect with them.
Big Data
we do basket level transactional analysis to understand how to unlock growth, prioritise investment and win with shoppers across the 5P’s
Too often we try to oversimplify data in order to make it manageable, however, the insights that will unlock growth and drive improved profitability are often hidden in the complexity of the data.
We use a combination of traditional data analytics, predictive modelling and AI (machine learning) to generate different levels of insight.
The use of all of these analytical tools requires the knowledge of how to direct and channel the analysis to yield relevant and actionable insights and then the expertise of how to apply them to achieve the commercial objectives.
The marriage between big data and shopper psychology
unveils what is at the heart of shoppercentricity
ShopperSense, one of the most robust Shopper Insights Studies in SA, provides a shopper-centric approach to building Profitable Customer Marketing strategies.
This next generation solution enables you to create greater relevance with shoppers, more frequent conversion and a sustainable increase in consumption patterns so that you exceed your commercial objectives.
ShopperSense is a syndicated study designed to measure shopper behaviour and the drivers that underpin shoppers’ choices across all consumable purchases in every channel shopped.
We do this by talking to shoppers via our mobile app and building a ‘transaction history’ of all the retailers they have shopped so we can contextualize their spend.
This integrated insight is the basis for winning Channel, Customer, Category and Brand plans that drive growth and deliver a higher ROI
