Driving impulse purchase through in-aisle insight

The challenge

A global confectionary brand wanted to increase sales in convenience stores by helping retailers to attract new buyers.

Our approach

We combined in-store observation with shopper interviews at the aisle to explore how our client could use POS and packaging more effectively to stimulate impulse purchase.

Taking a bigger scoop of repertoire buyers’ spend

The challenge

A premium ice-cream manufacturer sought ways to grow market share by increasing spend amongst their less loyal repertoire buyers.

Our approach

We used an ethnographic approach combining filming, eye-tracking and shopper interviews to help understand the conversion process for the category, and reveal the precise interruptions that would trigger increased sales.

The insight

Connected Shopper

Influencing shoppers on the path to purchase

Nothing has a greater influence on shoppers’ choices than their relationship with the brand. However, the brand experience fails to extend into the point-of-sale, resulting in brands seeing their hard-won place in consumers’ hearts and minds eroded when it comes to strong sales performance.

Shopper Tester

Identifying winning initiatives to drive sales at the point of sale

Many point-of-sale initiatives are launched without a full understanding of how they will perform in the real online or offline store context.

Shopper Tester uses virtual reality environments (for bricks and mortar) or web cloning (for eCommerce) to replicate the moment of purchase, and provide genuine understanding of shopper behaviour in-store. It reveals unconscious triggers and habitual patterns to generate insights for growth from both new and existing buyers.
