As technology advances, it is becoming easier to measure footfall in an e-commerce store, but what about in a physical store? Measuring footfall and knowing the real origin of customer traffic to a physical store has become one of the main challenges for the retail sector.
Conversion : Get the highest number of visits in specific areas
Recurrence : Getting customers from nearby areas to increase the number of visits to the physical store and, consequently, increase the average ticket.
Awareness : Generate greater brand recall of the brand, normally by expanding the area of influence, moving from the most active micro-zones to more distant areas.
What tools to use to measure the impact of a marketing campaign?
