Shopper Insight
See what drives the decision to buy.
Whether in store or online, understanding shoppers isn’t just about what they do—it’s about why they do it.
We go beyond browsing, intent, and conversion to uncover the attitudes, emotions, and expectations shaping real decisions—so you can connect earlier, convert faster, and keep them coming back.
Why insight, not instinct, drives conversion
Shopper behavior is constantly evolving—driven by shifting expectations, new technologies, and changing cultural norms. If you’re still relying on assumptions or outdated personas, you’re already behind.
At Basis, we get under the surface. We explore how shoppers think, feel, choose, and act—online and in-store, across channels and moments. Our work turns fragmented journeys into actionable insight—giving you the confidence to build better strategies, sharper campaigns, and more relevant experiences.
Why Basis shopper insight?
We don’t just tell you what your customer base are doing. We help you understand why they’re doing it—and what to do about it.
Clickstream data and in-store data can only tell you so much. We reveal the motivations, triggers, and emotional drivers behind each decision.
From everyday routines to major purchases, we tailor every study to your category, customer, and commercial needs—always balancing breadth and depth.
Our methods capture real journeys in real time—from environmental audits and mobile diaries to simulations, shop-alongs, and online behavior tracking—so you see decisions as they actually unfold.
We use AI to analyze millions of search, social, and ecommerce signals—then bring in human interpretation to find the stories and signals that matter.
Our insight is designed to be used—not just read. Every project delivers clear takeaways, team-ready tools, and strategic direction built to drive momentum.

- Proposition and message development – Build sharper, more resonant ideas rooted in shopper truth.
- In-store and digital optimization – Spot friction, fine-tune touchpoints, and make the path to purchase smoother across every channel.
- Category entry points – See what brings new shoppers into your space—and how to meet them earlier, better.
- Innovation opportunities – Discover emerging needs and unmet expectations that unlock new product and experience ideas.
- Competitive positioning – Understand how shoppers really see your brand—and how to win attention, preference, and loyalty.
