“After searching for data on home décor styling trends, Assortment Styler was the only report with details on how Americans decorate their homes. The report gave us the competitive advantage across multiple titles of knowing the top home décor styles and historical and future trends.”
Path to Purchase Research, sometimes called Consumer Journey Research focuses on the consumer’s purchase process. It explores the origins of their perceived need for a purchase and then follows them as they research the purchase (where and how do they research, what influences them?), then as they make their purchase (where did they buy, why did they buy there?), why they made the selection they did (what product features and attributes did they value most? What was the role of brand and price?) and finally as they begin to use the product they purchased (are they pleased with it, would they recommend it?).
Marketers need to understand this process from beginning to end in order to maximize the likelihood of capturing purchases. Poor visibility, poor availability, poor information or the wrong information can all undermine sales success. The right information in the right places can increase sales and profits.
