Buyer Distribution 

Let’s say you are Brand ‘A’ that markets canned and processed food to restaurants. You have an existing distribution network and a profile of your customers. Our demographic segmentation tool will provide a clear view of administrative units i.e. cities, districts or zones where the target audience most likely reside.  

Sales Analytics and Correlation 

The second logical step would be to look at the numbers and analyze the area where the sales and sales growth is not in accordance with the available market size.  

Hashbrown Systems’ comparative index tool will provide insight into how the sales and growth are lagging.  

A cursory look at the table will reveal that location D is performing the best, followed by A, C and B.  

Since the data has been normalized, scaled and factorized, brand can further correlate with their distribution network and on ground presence to identity where marketing is required and that brings us to the marketing plan in itself.

Brand ‘A’ – Marketing Plan 

Our planning tool provides access to millions of points of interest data points for brand managers and their team to perform analysis by trying various permutations and combinations.

The locations thus identified can either be briefed to the agency or brand’s in-house marketing team.  

Conclusion 

This is brief view of how we employ data analysis and location intelligence to create a plan of action that is efficient, effective and provides invaluable insights to ensure higher performance.
