It's all about metrics-driven sampling

Measure what you want to measure

Whatever your sampling goals are, we can help you measure the results. If you want to increase brand awareness, we'll measure affinity to the product. If it's driving sales, we'll measure purchase intent. Wondering about the efficacy of your sampling program? We'll find out if the consumer would've considered purchasing the product if they didn't receive a sample from you.

Deliver a frictionless path-to-purchase

Measure lift in post-sampling purchase intent through our Consumer Insights Survey, track in-store redemptions using QR codes and coupons, or see increased online conversions and sales via direct carting. 

You tell us what your end sales goal is, and our platform will measure your success.
