Experian plc (EXPGY: OTCQX International Premier) | Experian FootFall launches Site Analytics, a multichannel platform to analyze offline foot…
NEW YORK , June 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/—Experian FootFall, a market leading provider of visitor analytics, today announced the launch of its Site Analytics software which provides retailers with the tools to seamlessly understand all facets of their business and obtain a sharper view of consumer behavior. Utilizing this cloud-based software, marketers are armed with an advanced multichannel platform that provides data regarding retailer performance. With Site Analytics, retailers not only have the ability to capture the total number of visitors to brick and mortar locations, but to dive deeper to determine specific shopping patterns like which departments or floors were visited at which time of the day. Correspondingly, retailers can employ Site Analytics to monitor online shopping behaviors which are very similar to traditional spending patterns. For example when shopping online, a customer enters the website (store) then visits specific pages (departments) where he or she dwell for a certain amount of time at a specific point during the day / week. Then, as with in store shopping, customers will take their “cart” to the payment area and hopefully complete the purchase. Online customer behavior is ultimately different compared to in store behavior, however, the need to comprehend conversion rates and customer behavior remains exactly the same. By implementing FootFall’s software to capture these key data points and by working with the company to better understand the factors that converted or deterred sales, retailers are better positioned to assure a positive customer experience, create loyal shoppers, improve conversion rates, optimize merchandizing by channels and increase sales
