How heat maps can increase your revenue.

Where are my customers?

Hopefully your customers are in your store. At the moment, knowing whether a customer is in your store or not, is as far as most retailers go. What if you could tell where your customers are spending their time inside your store?

That would be pretty great, we know. We also know that seeing where in your store your customers are spending most of their time is extremely valuable.

Why is knowing where my customer is in store important?

Footfall counting helps you understand the volume of customers you are getting a day, the beginning of your funnel. Sales data shows you the end of your funnel; it shows what customers end up buying. If you know how long customers spend in different areas of your store, then you have more awareness of what products customers looked at first and considered buying. You can see where they go when they enter your shop and where they are stopping. Comparing this to sales data for those products helps you refine product offerings. This knowledge allows you to experiment with messaging and displays which in turn helps you find out what results in increased consideration time and browsing, ending in greater sales volume.

Kepler can show you where your customers are!

All of these reasons are why we’re developing one of the world’s most accurate in-store customer heat mapping technologies. After a simple placement of three small devices around your store, you have live daily and weekly visual reports of exactly where customers spend the most time in your store.

The devices can be placed anywhere there are powerpoints, out of sight anywhere around your store. They don’t need line of sight into any area, or any external wiring; it’s simply a matter of plugging them into available powerpoints, and away they go. After a week, you can log in to your own dashboard via your computer or iPad and you will see highly accurate visuals of where your customers have been spending their time.

Why wonder where your customers spend most of your time when you can see it first-hand? Contact us to learn more about what goes on in your store each day, without being physically in your store each day.
