Choice of what is personally relevant But: Decision made on information seen/processed. Para-Foveal vision Foveal vision 5 Peripheral vision

6 The Conversion Model What s not seen, is not sold! From exposure to effect Exposure Attention Behavior Memory Visibility Attraction Power Relevance Conditioning Lost opportunities Bounce rate Objective + Implicit Data 48% 87% Subjective 64% What needs improvement? 6 79% did not 52% against gain competitor attention 32% product details not understood

9 Eye Tracking Methodology Standard Field Approach Recruitment Introduction of the participant Pre-Interview to capture the shoppers intention Individual shopping tour with eye tracking - footage live view Post Interview Qual: n=6-12 per node Quant: n=30-50 per node Mixed: n=30-50 per node and representative user behavior described individually Depending on profile pre-recruitment, or face-to-face Participants can wear contact lenses but not prescription glasses, no heavy make-up, no eye or nerval diseases Step 1 Signing Consent Form Step 2 Mounting eye tracker and calibrate eyes (2 min) Step 3 Giving study introduction and task The task should allow to measure success Respondents gets used to the equipment Goal: Capture familiarity to the category / product / media / stimulus in general Allows for grouping in statistical analysis Goal: no interaction with the respondent during the session For the moderator: Wireless live view of the eye tracker footage No modification of the test environment required Moderator takes photo of the stimulus for analysis Frequency: 8-10 sessions per day and eye tracker setup Session duration: depending on task (typically min) Emotional measures optional Capture recall to measure level of impact Questions that allow for statistical analysis, like about consideration, preference, etc. 9

10 Eye Tracking Methodology Standard Post-Field Approach Identification and description of behavioral patterns for success and failure Data processing Data analysis Each video recording will be watched Data mapping on photo for further data analysis Stimulus mark-up with AOIs Optional: coding with single events and sequences Duration: typically 1-2 weeks for 1 person working on it full time Observation Visualization of data distribution (gaze plot / heatmap) Descriptive statistics Behavioral segmentation Regression for modelling of behavior for a) success and b) failure to achieve set goals Results: Behavioral persona Significance testing of variables Effects sizes of significant differences in e.g. specific behavior, like choice 10

Where do shoppers have free attention? How much attention does existing POSM receive? Does POSM affect the shopper s route? Shelf 3 Shelf 4 Cash Desk Visit duration (avg): 23 seconds Exposed to POSM (avg): 8 seconds Attention on POSM (avg): 1.9 seconds Elements looked at (avg): 5.4 Interaction with mobile app: 2 out of 100 Content recalled: 14 out of

13 Package - Attention Distribution & Concentration Tool of choice: Webcam panel with global reach and fast turnaround Possible visualizations to illustrate visual behavior as well as noticeability, engagement and relevance of a stimulus (pack shot/pack shot elements): Heatmaps show the aggregated distribution and concentration of visual attention during the eye tracking task (of a single participant or a defined participant group) Gaze plot show the location, order and time spent looking on a stimulus (of a single participant or a defined participant group) Correlation with in-depth interviews helps to understand whether engagement originates from interest or distraction Depending on package design but also product specification (e.g. low fat, lactose free) the participants attention is captured by different package elements. 13
