Sales
Channels
List
of
the
type
and
names
of
stores
you
should
visit,
in
order
to
get
a
complete
picture
of
where
consumers
meet
your
product
and
packaging.
Take
into
account
your
distribution
dynamics
and
plan
to
visit
the
different
types
of
stores
where
your
product,
and
your
key
competitors
products,
are
found,
Distribution
channels
can
be
unique
to
different
markets
and
the
display
situation
may
radically
change
between
store
types.
When
you
visit
small
stores,
its
always
best
to
ask
permission
to
look
around,
small
storekeepers
are
generally
friendly
and
accommodating,
whereas
most
supermarkets
will
not
allow
you
to
openly
do
store-checks,
so
you
will
need
to
be
prepared
to
use
your
iphone
(or
equivalent),
to
take
notes
making
it
less
likely
that
you
will
be
challenged
in-store.

Product/Category
Location
Analysing
the
shelf
in
detail:
How the shelf is filled? : Are products displayed by product types, or blocked together as brands?
Opportunities:
Is
there
an
opportunity
to
create
colour
blocking
or
is
there
a
need
to
create
a
strong
range
design
that
can
easily
identify
your
brand
when
its
mixed
up
with
all
the
others
and
displayed
by
flavour?
Where
is
your
brand
placed,
in
comparison
to
the
competitive
packs?
:
On
the
left
or
the
right
(in
western
society
we
read
from
left
to
right,
so
packs
placed
on
the
left
will
often
have
a
visual
advantage
over
others)?
Are
the
packs
placed
high
(at
eye
level,
where
visibility
scores
are
high),
or
lower
down
(where
a
design
will
have
to
work
harder
to
gain
attention)?
How
many
facings
are
awarded
to
each
brand
and
private
label?
:
This
is
important,
because
it
gives
the
designer
an
idea
of
the
stand-out
challenge,
it
also
exposes
if
there
is
an
opportunity
to
make
a
repeating
design
or
not.

Packaging
advantages:
Make
a
note
of
the
physical
packaging,
this
is
the
moment
to
see
if
competitors
have
any
physical
packaging
advantages,
these
may
be
in
display,
use,
transport
or
storage.
Advantages
may
also
take
the
form
of
original,
innovative
packaging
or
printing
innovations.

Sensation
Transference
How
does
your
brand,
and
the
competitive
brands,
fit
within
the
context
of
the
whole
category,
Take
a
moment
to
examine
how
each
package
interprets
the
visual
stimuli
of
this
communication,
and
look
for
points
of
difference
or
possible
advantages
that
can
be
exploited.
Does
your
brand
(competition),
look
like
it
belongs
to
the
category:
Does
it
deliver
on
product
and
consumer
expectations
if
so
how,
if
not
why?
What
are
the
emotional
cues
employed
by
the
category
and
how
is
emotion
expressed
via
the
design:
This
may
be
from
the
way
a
product
is
shown
to
be,
for
example:
hot
and
steamy
or
cold
and
fresh,
to
how
a
brands
quality
level
is
expressed.

Shopper
Experience
Watch
how
people
shop
the
category,
is
this
group
of
products
bought
on
impulse
or
is
a
more
reflective
purchase.
Take
this
opportunity
to
observe
consumer
gender
and
age,
watching
also
to
see
what
seems
to
draw
their
attention
and
how
they
interact
with
the
packages
that
are
in
front
of
them.
Gender: Age group: Impulse or reflective purchase: Other observations: Example do consumers pick-up touch the product?
Observe and note how your brand is positioned within the category, from both the price and the quality communication, in order to discern if youve got the mix correct!
