Eye Tracking Study at the SAQ: Grab Consumers’ Attention Online vs. In-Store

Last December, we used mobile eye tracking to identify good practices to grab consumers’ attention in an SAQ store. We worked with SAQ and OPTECH to see what grabs clients’ attention in the aisles and how product positioning impacts choice. Our study also had an online portion where we asked consumers to select the same products on SAQ’s online store. In this post, we will focus on online shopping experience based on results from the Web portion of our study. Our objective: find what grabs consumers’ attention online and how online and in-store experiences compare.  Read more

We can also track something we haven’t discussed much in our blog until now: cognitive load. Read more

Compared to online marketing, point of sale marketing has typically access to less data on customer behavior, especially for behavior other than the actual purchase. New technology such as mobile eye tracking can reduce this lack of objective data. Read more
