The retail industry has always thrived on data. Understanding customer behaviour, predicting trends and optimising store performance is crucial for retailers to remain competitive. But, how do you forecast something as dynamic as footfall? Enter neural networks
Neural Networks are a subset of machine learning, inspired by the structure and functional aspects of the human brain. They comprise layers of interconnected nodes or “neurons” that learn from data by adjusting the connections between these nodes.
By considering all these parameters and more, a neural network can provide a holistic time series prediction, fine-tuned to the specificities of a location and time.
Retailers can allocate staff efficiently, ensuring maximum coverage during peak times and reducing overheads during predicted lulls.
Predicting footfall allows retailers to manage their inventory better, ensuring they neither overstock nor run out of popular items.
Stores can time their marketing campaigns to coincide with predicted high footfall periods.
At Retail Sensing, we’re at the forefront of integrating neural networks into footfall prediction. Our advanced solutions are tailored to meet the unique needs of every retailer, ensuring accurate, actionable insights. Whether you’re a small boutique or a large chain, we have the expertise to elevate your retail strategy to the next level.
