Geometry Global and Path to Purchase Institute Present Global Perspectives on Shopper Marketing
New Book Showcases Best Practices in Shopper Marketing From Around the World
(firmenpresse) - NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwired) -- 10/09/13 -- and announced today the release of a new book, Global Perspectives on Shopper Marketing. Published by the Path to Purchase Institute and Geometry Global in conjunction with Coca-Cola and Unilever, the book's official unveiling took place at the 2013 Shopper Marketing Expo in Chicago.
Global Perspectives resulted from a desire to examine shopper marketing outside of the United States in an effort to identify best practices and how they translate from continent to continent, country to country. The book highlights the expertise of two global manufacturing giants, Unilever and Coca-Cola, as well as best-in-class case histories from Precision Activation agency Geometry Global. It contains 31 case studies on topics such as Experiential Marketing, the Digital Path to Purchase, Retail Messaging and Media and Regional Branding from brands and marketers in 18 countries including Germany, the United Kingdom, Malaysia, and Romania.
"Marketers looking for best practices and fresh ideas can often get mired in their own product category, retail channel and especially geographic region," said Peter Hoyt, CEO of the Path to Purchase Institute. "Our goal was to help marketers around the world find inspiration by gaining a global perspective on shopper marketing and learn from the successes of peers outside their markets."
Presented as a compendium of case studies, the book found three universal truths about effective shopper marketing across all regions, namely:
Effective programs all start with shopper insights vs. consumer insights.
Insights are the driving force behind relevant programs that address real shopper needs.
Strong collaboration between a brand and a retailer is the key ingredient that turns a good program into a great one.
"The path to purchase has become increasingly complex as the digital age turns the concept of shopping into an 'anytime, anywhere' occurrence," said Scott McCallum, President, Shopper Marketing North America at Geometry Global. "Successful marketing now requires a strategy that will translate insights into a precise plan of action, one that identifies the ideal combination of vehicles, venues, occasions and communications to reach shoppers at the most opportune moments."
