Retail

It’s any new to the world idea. It could be a new product, service, advancement, method or process. Simply put, it’s doing something you haven’t done before.

Innovating in retail is more important than ever. Shoppers engage with products, services, and retailers in ways that were never before possible. From the rise of new in-store experiences to expanded store-within-a-store offerings and the ever-growing role of e-commerce and omnichannel, knowing where to invest to drive growth can feel daunting.

With a range of best-in-class research technologies, a global footprint and a dedication to predictive analytics, we are uniquely positioned to help retailers advance their innovation efforts.

• Why do shoppers choose your store?

• When shopping a department, do they see other retailers doing a better job than you?  

• How big can an initiative be for your store? How does a new innovation interact with your current shelf set?

• How do those innovations stack up against those offered by your competitors? 

Learn directly from your shoppers at every stage of the innovation process and receive strategic direction, with a tactical roadmap to win in each department.

• Do your marketing efforts resonate with your shopper?
