What people are saying about us

  • "We were going through an aggressive branch expansion plan in Hong Kong and saw this as an opportunity to rethink our merchandising strategy. Customers visiting our branches were being presented with an array of posters, pamphlets, standees and digital signboards. We wanted to reduce the clutter and focus on presenting a clear and consistent message - the same way good retailers do.

    Synovate's Shopper Engage research enabled us to see how customers were interacting with our merchandise - for example, how long they spent looking at specific posters being presented to them. The biggest insight - and surprise - was that the average branch visit lasted less than 30 seconds. This was very useful data for convincing my internal people that our messages had to be simple and direct."
