People counting technology and data analytics will

determine if the campaign drove more people into your

store compared to a non­promotional day. 

Data analytics is able to tell if people responded to your

promotion by showing up to your store even if they DID

NOT make a purchase. 

Management can look at other factors to see what may

have deterred the customer, ie. the store wasn’t

properly staffed or they were out of stock of a specified

item. 

Understanding how to analyze marketing campaign effectiveness is key to

setting new traffic goals for future campaigns and budgets.
