Surveys

Global In-Store Practices (part 1): Industry benchmark survey results - The 2010 Industry Benchmark Survey was developed as a joint effort between Quofore and Booz & Company, a global consulting firm. The joint research seeks to better understand the challenges Consumer Products companies face in-store and how technology is being used in the in-store environment.

This report summarizes the finding and provides analysis of the results while explaining the methodology used. It also provides details on what the results imply for the future of in-store sales and merchandising operations.

Global In-Store Practices (part 2): ROI benchmark survey results - part 2 of the Quofore and Booz & Company survey is in response to popular demand. Consumer Products (CP) executives wanted more insight into the return-on-investment practices of their global and domestic peers, and the retailers they supply.

This research focuses on the levels of measurement of retail execution activities -- such as in-store promotion -- and the tools and technologies being used. In collating the survey results, Quofore and Booz & Company analysts discovered an intriguing paradox in the data; despite a belief that ROI is being measured routinely, the majority of respondents remain unable to quantify the revenue impact of their retail execution activities.

Australian In-Store Practices: Industry benchmark survey - a follow-up to the global study this paper presents an in-depth Australian perspective focusing exclusively on responses from Australian executives.
