The Art of Leveraging Whitespace to Drive Sales

Posted on:

For all the headlines about Amazon and eCommerce, it’s easy to forget that physical retail locations never went away. In fact, physical shelf space continues to provide significant potential for sales and brand growth.

BACKGROUND

In marketing, the term “whitespace” refers to an area of untapped potential. From a brand perspective, whitespace is an opportunity to expand market presence and reach new customers. But the existence of opportunities is one thing. Finding them is another.

CHALLENGE

A leading manufacturer of health, wellness, and personal care products wanted to reach new consumers and drive sales for several of the brands under its corporate umbrella. Their goal? Nothing short of becoming the preferred provider for healthcare systems and practitioners across the country.

APPROACH

The mission was perfect for Compass Marketing’s Specialty team, the wing of our company that maintains a focus on physical retail. Our Specialty experts identified whitespace opportunities, pitched products, and launched an initial test program at a leading clothing retailer.

RESULTS

Since the first product was sold in May 2020, the business has experienced steady growth. The assortment and distribution have expanded to stores across the nation, and sales quintupled. Our team now has a successful blueprint to introduce similar products into specialty retailers or nontraditional retailers.

INSIGHTS

In addition to our digital marketing capabilities, Compass can also optimize your brand’s performance on store shelvesincluding shelf space in non-traditional retail outlets. We do it through a unique combination of whitespace expertise, datadriven strategic insights, and indepth knowledge of the appropriate channels.
