SNAPSHOP

Bringing competitive shopping into the 21st century

Business Problem

Competitive shopping provides vital data for consumer goods companies and retailers alike. Retailers need to know how competitors are displaying similar or competitive products much as consumer goods companies want to know how retailers are promoting its wares. In order to collect this data, companies send valuable employees into the stores several times a year, armed with a clipboard, printed excel sheets and a pen. After spending multiple hours in the store, the comp shoppers must then transcribe that data into the computer, expending yet more expensive hours.

Engagement

SnapShop surveyed multiple potential partners and chose Copper Digital to digitize the entire comp shopping process. We met with SnapShop’s founders to define the product roadmap and necessary feature set to ensure the solution would achieve market adoption. From strategy to design, technical architecture to development, quality assurance to support, Copper Digital developed the entire product suite for SnapShop.

This included a mobile app with integrated barcode scanner to pre-populate data fields for comp shoppers, integrated photo capture and voice notes for use in client presentations, as well as cloud data storage to instantly transfer the reports into a digital format. Finally, Copper Digital built a robust reporting dashboard allowing comp shoppers to present their data to clients seamlessly and beautifully with no added effort.
