Proven methodology combined with the right data to deliver a robust result.
○Matched panel of test and control stores. Statistical store clustering and selection process. (proprietary k-means based approach)
○Statistics to control for variance and noise. Pre/Post and Test/Control experimental design. (ANCOVA)
○Statistical significance driving sample selection and duration. We expect 10/10 and 12 wks. This allows the test to accurately and reliably read small variations in lift results.
○Results forecasted and annualized to “sister” store clusters within the customer and rolled up to chain total.
○Robust data to include: Not all customers will have equal ability to supply data. There will be a core group of measures that are required and an extended group of measures that can be turn on/off. (Examples: What shipped, what sold and external factors like weather, demographics. Availability of competitive sales, price and other effects will be discussed during set-up and may be turned on/off.)
