Helping retailers win by making evidence-based decisions.
With a wide range of customized applications, such as forecasting sales for retail sites, merchandize mix optimization, predictive analytics and customer journey analytics, we work with you to help identify growth opportunities and build stronger customer connections.
Identify your best customers
Develop a holistic picture of who your customers are, what they buy and how they consume products. Deepen your insights and build personas that can be used to segment customers and deliver personalized offers and services. Create loyalty programs based on user behavior or the optimum media mix to reach your customers.
Optimize site locations
Make informed site, location and capital investment decisions using analytics tools such as GIS mapping, geocoding and location intelligence. Use trade area analysis to find your best customers, optimize existing store footprint, identify underserved markets for potential expansion or estimate any site’s retail opportunity.
Enhance the customer experience
Align your brick and mortar locations with your digital channels to create a consistent customer experience. Create e-commerce strategies based on spending habits or leverage tools such as mobility analytics to map the customer journey and see where your customers go before and after shopping at your store.
