THE INTERNET OF THINGS AND THE FUTURE OF INSIGHTS

Renee Brandon VP, Research

THE VINE To get the freshest food,

get as close to the vine as you can.

Thinking Distance

Time Thought

FRESH INSIGHTS To get the freshest insights, get as close to the point of decision making as you can.

POINT OF INFLUENCE® With location-based research from the Field Agent mobile app,

companies gain insights at the point of decision-making.

INTERNET OF THINGS New levels of connectivity will change when and how people make

purchase decisions, and give us new ways to understand the process.

WITH THE INTERNET OF THINGS…

•  Shopping, purchase, and usage decisions will happen everywhere

•  Separation between the shopper and the consumer will diminish

•  Technology will measure decisions all along the way

We can ask people questions via a lot of new devices and in

a lot of new ways

WITH THE INTERNET OF THINGS… •  We can know more about what people Do •  We may not need to ask them What

But we still need to know:

•  “Why?”

•  “How do you feel?”

•  “How do you decide?”

•  “What would you do if…?”

BUT WHAT ABOUT…

•  Acceptance (“creepiness”) factor

•  Privacy concerns

CONNECTED STORE AISLES

BEACON IN-STORE TEST

ü  Traveled into the aisle +26 pts. vs. the Control Store

ü Were more willing to accept mobile messages

ü  Increased desire to receive in-aisle mobile messages 2x vs. control

ü Were willing to accept 3-4 messages during a large shopping trip

Shoppers who interacted with beacons:

FUTURISTIC SCENARIOS

Connected store aisle

Connected appliances & replenishment

Connected home

Connected body (health monitoring)

We presented people with futuristic scenarios to understand…

1.  Appeal of the technology (benefit)

2.  Comfort level with surveys triggered by the technology (creepiness factor?)

3.  Likelihood to respond to survey triggered from the technology

AND THERE IS ALSO… •  Survey Overload

how much is too much, will there be something equivalent to a “Do not call” list where users opt out?

•  Privacy Concerns strongest benefits may have the highest risks, especially regarding health related devices

•  Lack of Clear Benefit to Responding how do we offer incentives?

•  Early Adopters vs. Mainstream

“The scarce resource will continue to be human attention. There is a limit to the usefulness of devices

that are worn in public but that demand attention because it is often socially and practically unacceptable

to give those devices enough attention to make them worth the trouble of configuring and interacting with.”
