Brand and Product Selection

How does a customer select a brand or product? What influence does price, location on the shelf, the brand and product context, and the use of POS materials have on customer decisions?

You can also test various seasonal or other optional shelving solutions.

Location of Secondary Displays on Palettes

Palette displays are one of the most common and effective methods of presenting promoted goods. Test to find the best locations for goods, the size, height, and content of the palette island, as well as brand communication and prices.

It also allows you to test customer reactions for various groups (i.e. price-sensitive, families with small children, etc.)
