In-store Heatmap: A Solution When Customer Traffic Slows Down

The client is a retailer with branches all over the country. From the early stages of the COVID-19 crisis, as a measure to improve sales, they felt the need for adopting groundbreaking technology. As a result, sales remained strong even during the complicated pandemic situation with the in-store heatmap solution made by VTI.

Using the in-store heatmap to nurture existing customers when customer traffic slows down

Due to the corona wreck, the market witnessed drastic changes in customer preferences and behaviour patterns. Customers refrained from eating out and shopping offline, retail sales therefore declined. Understanding the challenge, the client knew that special situations required special methods, and consulted VTI for extensive experience in advanced technologies.

Unlock customer insights with the in-store heatmap

At the time, the client decided to put aside improvement on prospective customers and focus on cultivating existing customers instead. VTI proposed a heatmap solution to capture new customer preferences and behaviour patterns. A heatmap is a graph that shows how users behave with the content on a platform using different shades of colour. As a result, customer information from stores was inspected, aggregated, and analysed to support sales and marketing campaigns that tap into customer insights.

Sales are going strong, and new stores are planned

With the help of the heatmap, the client had a better grasp of customer expectations. Customer demand was better met and sales significantly improved during COVID-19. Furthermore, by data collection and analysis, the client was enabled to not only demand but also the market by utilising valuable data. “In a fast-moving world, data is money. Thanks to heatmaps, we are planning to open a new store.”
