SPI (Nationwide In-Store Promotion Survey)

Causal data of sales, capturing the true state of in-store sales promotions

Data on the status of in-store promotions collected by our investigators at the end of every week at the same stores as those targeted by the SRI+ ®(Nationwide Retail Store Panel Survey) (405 stores nationwide). Can be used to understand the implementation status of in-store promotions and to measure their effectiveness.

Point 1

It’s possible to check the sales trend at the time an in-store promotion is launched together with the implementation ratio of promotion measures.

Point 2

It’s possible to evaluate the effectiveness of the sales promotion measures, i.e. how effective they were in pushing up the sales volume.

Characteristics of the SPI (Nationwide In-Store Promotion Survey)

Integration with the SRI+ (Nationwide Retail Store Panel Survey)

We integrate the data from the survey stores with the data from the SRI+ (Nationwide Retail Store Panel Survey) and provide it by way of a data processing tool or report.

Chronological comparison

It’s possible to compare with a competitor’s products or with a previous year item by item in terms of the rate of piling-up the display, whether any flyers are posted, sales by in-store sales staff, or a video promotion.

It is possible to customize the survey details

It’s possible to customize the content of the surveys such as adding sales promotion tools (POP, videos, postcards) or a golden zone.

Outline of the SPI (Nationwide In-Store Promotion Survey)

Since our investigators input the sales promotion information by scanning the piled-up display items in the store at the end of each week using a special barcode scanner, it’s possible to find out what was sold, when, where, and how.
