The Aglo process for NPD Watch
How It Works
Discovery: We gather inputs on your NPD SKU, NPD pricing, packaging, varieties, store list, sales territories, channels. One SKU with up to 6 varieties or pack sizes is included.
Research: For the first 3 months of your NPD, Aglo’s network of shoppers visit 72 metropolitan retail stores weekly to photograph your NPD on the shelf.
Analysis: Aglo analyses the photos to generate a rich set of metrics
Insights: Scorecards are generated based on the extracted metrics to assist you with improving retail execution of your NPD
Discovery
Share your “picture of success”
We work with you to define what you see as a successful launch. We gather inputs on your NPD SKU, NPD pricing, packaging, varieties, store list, sales territories and channels. Based on your “picture of success” we define a research timetable and the metrics used in the scorecards.
Research
See the results of Aglo store visits in a dynamic gallery
Aglo’s shoppers visit metro retail stores and photograph your NPD on the shelf. You will be able to access a dynamic gallery of all store images captured by shoppers. You’ll start to see the first results within hours, and you’ll be able to identify issues early in your launch. The gallery can be viewed by up to 5 other launch stakeholders.
Discovery
Understand the metrics behind your launch
You can access the the following metrics for your NPD:-
Availability
Number of Facings
Assortment Availability
Shelf Positioning
Distribution
Assortment Distribution
Stockouts
Pricing
You can break down by the measures by region, chain and store format, and view how your metrics change over the life of the launch.
Insights
Measure your success - and highlight issues
Based on your “picture of success”, you will see a monthly and weekly scorecard for the NPD as a whole – and each store. You’ll receive additional scorecards for each region and chain.
The scorecards include assessing availability, number of facings, assortment, shelf position, stockouts and pricing against your “picture of success”.
Any exceptions are highlighted. Scorecards can be viewed on the Aglo Portal by your launch stakeholders.
