Why Should Home Brands Use Market Intelligence?
In the world of home improvement, staying informed of consumer preferences and industry trends is essential to maintain a competitive edge. By gathering and analyzing the right data, you can be confident in the decisions you make to better position your business and meet your customers needs. Here’s a few ways you can start utilizing market intelligence to grow your brand:
Track and benchmark your performance over time
Accessing the right data allows home improvement brands to reliably unpack their performance relative to the rest of the market, allowing brands to accurately benchmark themselves against specific competitors or to wider industry or category. An accurate understanding of market share can provide a clear point of reference for tracking market dynamics, evaluating the effectiveness of growth strategies, target setting, and more.
Understand Your Customer and their Preferences
Market intelligence enables home improvement brands to gain deep insights into the who, what, where, and when of shopper actions, so that you can better focus your energy unpacking the why. By analyzing shoppers' purchasing patterns, brands can tailor products to meet their customers evolving needs - including adapting product offerings or brand positioning to drive higher customer satisfaction and loyalty.
Monitor and React to Competitor Activity
Market intelligence doesn't stop at understanding your customers—it also involves keeping an eye on your competitors. By tracking the strategies, products (incl private label), and pricing of your competition, you can identify gaps in the market and capitalize on opportunities they may have missed.
Optimize Pricing Strategies
Setting the right prices for your products or services is critical for profitability. Market intelligence helps home improvement brands analyze pricing strategies of competitors, assess consumer willingness to pay, identify bundling opportunities, and determine the optimal pricing structure. This allows brands to remain competitive while also maximizing their revenue potential.
