The best shopper research needs to reveal what really happens in-store. This leads to actionable insights that deliver the optimal ROI. When you entrust your shopper research to SBXL, you receive the insight, knowledge & understanding to improve shopper engagement & grow your brand as a direct result.
Getting hold of your own game-changing shopper insights couldn’t be easier.
When it comes to shopping for your brand, what do you need to know?
Any brand on any shelf in any store has an effectiveness ratio in terms of See, Appeal, Engage and Buy. How good is yours?
Some people define ‘shopper insights’ as simply the analysis of sales data: convinced that these numbers might reveal important clues as to underlying drivers of shopping behaviour.
But, such data fails to deliver insight into the motivations and habits that drive shopper behaviour in-store. We define Shopper Insights as being any new understanding of shopping behaviour or shopper motivation that can be leveraged for competitive advantage.
In other words, we provide you with the insights you need to succeed in-store: It’s that simple!
The best shopper insights come from going beyond understanding what and discovering why. Why do some shoppers buy your brand? And why don’t more shoppers buy your brand?
4 Rules of shopper research that we all must follow:
Claimed behaviour is deeply flawed! When you ask people questions, such as ‘How likely are you to buy Brand X in the next month?’, their responses can be 50% inaccurate. Because SBXL analyses actual behaviour, you discover the truth about in-store.
People are emotional beings, not rational supercomputers. A lot of the time, shoppers simply aren’t consciously aware of their in-store motivations and desires. That’s why we go way beyond what shoppers say to us.
Human memory is far less reliable than you’d think. Our brains simply cannot retain the details of how we shop. Here at SBXL, we validate claimed behaviour with what actually happens at fixture.
As a species we are predictably irrational. For this reason, we know the right questions to ask shoppers. As a result, you get to those deeper, but more revealing shopper insights & motivations.
20 years of shopper research combined with 20 years of understanding what clients want. We know what it takes to provide you with actionable insights supported by easy to understand data. We also recognise that you need to find your shopper insights, knowledge and understanding quickly & easily.
