In this session, you will learn how to address common business questions, including:
- How do I describe my area of study?
- How does this area compare to other areas?
- What are the demographic, financial, psychographic and media/behaviour/lifestyle variables in a custom trade area or standard level of geography?
The functionality we will cover will ensure you understand how to:
- Create areas based on both standard geographies and custom definitions
- Create batch trade areas for imported locations
- Use your areas to produce reports reflecting demographic, financial, and behaviour details, as well as lifestyle types through segmentation
- Share your results with internal or external stakeholders using our microsite functionality
