Investment in brand advertising can be wasted unless it is combined with relevant marketing to shoppers. Often millions of pounds of sales are lost when shoppers decide not to buy your brand.

Shopper Insights™ research has shown that in major multiple grocery and pharmacy:

  • Some categories attract very little attention from shoppers.
  • In others, up to 60% of shoppers can walk away without buying.

The majority of these lost sales are due to rectifiable retail factors that are controllable by the brand owner!

Trends in shopping behaviour are changing:

  • Destination shopping is decreasing, and switching or repertoire shopping is increasing – around 70% of purchasing decisions are made at the category fixture.
  • Unplanned and impulse shopping is increasing - only around 16% of grocery shoppers use shopping lists.
  • 700 UK stores now control approximately 50% of fmcg sales.
  • Shopping behaviour and attitudes alter between retailers.

There are major opportunities to increase your brand sales by improving your in-store performance through micro-marketing shopper-sensitive initiatives to the individual stores where your spend will make a difference. These stores and their shoppers can be identified and targeted!

“Why do consumers say one thing in research groups and do another at point of purchase?”

“Shoppers are not consumers – same person but different mindset. The store environment influences their behaviour.”

“Observation of shopping behaviour and interviews at the fixture is the most reliable way of gaining insights.”
