What made you purchase from the store and not elsewhere?

Were you satisfied with the experience as a whole?

Do you remember the name and logo of the store?

There exists no business without sales, no sales without customers; and usually; no customers without advertising. Poor advertising and merchandising increases costs without achieving the required profit.

Primary principles for effective advertising

You need to know who will buy, and why they will buy. How often will you need to buy the product? Would you buy on impulse? A customer is not going to buy from an untrustworthy seller. Advertising material and methods that fail to present the company and product as trustworthy will spoil profits, by repelling potential customers. Logos and other design features which do not reflect a professional trustworthy image will repel potential customers.

Effective advertising presents the business as trustworthy enough for the majority of people to get into contact, and it highlights the benefits which customers feel they need.

Primary principles for effective merchandising / web design

Effective merchandising involves using location, displays, product design, shop layout, seasons, labels, tickets, bags, tags, packaging, illustrations, prices and anything visible before customers in order to maximize sales potential, thus making the business more profit. Merchandising / web design makes up a significant portion of the customer experience and deserves a significant portion consideration. You want your customers to be making comments such as: "What a lovely shop", "a very useful shop indeed", "an easy to use website".

An effective advertising campaign can be completely wasted by a shop display that turns people away or a website that 'bounces' visitors away to another website. You want to make it as easy as possible for customers to buy from you, and to buy more.

The time in which people shop in a store and on a website differs. If you do not intend to shop at the store again, if you now need to buy a product attachment the store does not sell, or if you do not really feel like telling friends about how good the store is; the merchandising / web design was probably not effective and your experience was not impressive.
