# Diagnostics

#### Understand the *Whys* behind Shopper Behavior

Decision Insight’s suite of online diagnostics was developed to enhance our ShopperIQ virtual shopping studies. While ShopperIQ predicts What will happen at retail – that is, the impact on Sales – these diagnostics help reveal the Whys behind those purchase decisions and assist in optimizing the product offering.

The DI Diagnostic suite includes:

- **Findability:** How easy is it for shoppers to find your product on the shelf? Will the new product, packaging, or merchandising impact shelf presence?
- **Hot Spot Analysis:** Do each of the packaging elements communicate key product characteristics? What elements need revising and why?
- **Eye Tracking with Webcams:** What do shoppers actually see and engage with? Where is their eye flow?
- **Heat Maps:** Will the new product location or arrangement strategy impact how consumers interact with the aisle?
- **Virtual Ethnography:** Dig deeper with respondents through real-time qualitative, one-on-one intercepts with shoppers participating in a custom online quantitative study.
- **Emotional Connections:** Measure subconscious emotional associations vs. stated measures to learn: What type and strength of emotion are consumers experiencing when engaging with your products?
