What Can Behavioral Analytics Do For Me?

I'm in merchandising. What can Behavioral Analytics do for me?

Behavioral Analytics helps you uncover patterns in customer behaviors that will enable you to:

• Identify the top product attachments that will help increase lift and tell you what to promote and when.
• Design store layouts that will engage customers and influence add-on purchases.
• Uncover optimal product assortments based on store location and demographics.
• Optimize inventory levels by understanding how out-of-stock situations impact your bottom line.

How will it help me increase sales?

Behavioral Analytics helps you in two ways. First, you can segment your customers by purchasing or online browsing behaviors, not just by demographics, increasing your ability to understand and leverage customer actions. Second, it tells you exactly what will work and what won't by highlighting the behaviors that lead to sales or increased margins or bigger market baskets. Recognizing behavioral patterns that connect desired actions - which could include abandonment or other actions you want to avoid - enable you to optimize merchandising activities.

Can't I already do this today?

Your point of sale and web analytics tools collect tons of data on your customers' behaviors and provide you with great reports of what has already happened. However, they don't have the ability to surface the patterns that connect your customers with your end goal. Behavioral Analytics takes your existing customer data and gives you insights into what happens together and what will happen next so you can make smarter merchandising decisions moving forward, not just looking backwards.
