Retail Mapping Software from MapBusinessOnline
It's no secret that brick-and-mortar stores face increased competition from online retailers. One key advantage traditional retailers have over their online counterparts is a unique local perspective. Making this best use of this requires a strategic investment in tools that will help you leverage your sales history and other business intelligence in a geographic format.
That's where MapBusinessOnline comes in. MBO is a retail mapping solution that lets you work with your proprietary data and view it in new, insightful contexts. Ideal for both single-location stores and franchises, MapBusinessOnline is one of the best ways to get a strategic edge over your competition. Here's how.
Market Analysis with MapBusinessOnline
MapBusinessOnline contains several tools that help you get to know your community and customers better. Rather than relying on received wisdom about who lives where and how they shop, take a smarter, more data-driven approach. With MapBusinessOnline, retailers can:
- Plot previous sales on a heat map to find hotspots with the most demand for your services
- Locate competitors on a radius map to see which neighborhoods are currently saturated — and which are underserved
- Import up-to-date demographic data to get a clearer picture of who customers are, and tailor your marketing accordingly
MapBusinessOnline interfaces seamlessly with Salesforce, Act!, QuickBooks and other enterprise CRM and accounting platforms, making it easy to import your current and historical sales data. Select subscription packages provide access to industry-specific intelligence by market analysis firms such as Realzips and others.
Using Retail Mapping Software for Strategic Planning
As a retailer, the decision to expand your business is one of the most critical you'll make. You need to make sure a potential new location will provide the best possible chance of success.
