Euclid Analytics Included by Independent Research Firm as One of the 20 Startups All Retail eBusiness Executives Should Know in 2016

SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwired - Mar 30, 2016) -   Euclid Analytics, the leader in the location analytics, was recently recognized in Forrester's "20 Startups All Retail eBusiness Executives Should Know in 2016" report (March 2016). The report outlines the seven major challenges retailers face, and cites companies offering compelling and innovative solutions.

"It's an honor to be recognized by Forrester in this retail report," said Brent Franson, CEO of Euclid Analytics. "Today, retailers are struggling to understand the mobile connected consumer. As retailers transform themselves to address this challenge, we are pleased that Forrester shares, in our opinion, Euclid's vision of bringing the power of in-store analytics to physical retail."

A pioneer in location analytics, Euclid was cited as a startup with a unique solution addressing retailers' in-store analytics challenge. As stated in the report, in-store analytics data is traditionally one of the biggest blind spots for retailers, as there used to be virtually no insight into actual shopper behavior. However, when using Euclid, retailers are offered a level of analytics insight that online retailers have used for years, including conversion rates and dwell time.

Leveraging the existing Wi-Fi within retail stores and requiring no new hardware, Euclid delivers powerful insights around shopper behavior to make smarter business decisions. These insights include key metrics such as shopper frequency, duration, cross-shopping and traffic trends. When aligned with a retailer's business data, Euclid understands how shopper behavior impacts in-store conversion rates, marketing campaigns and operational changes. These insights are especially important as traditional retailers face increasing competition from popular e-commerce companies making inroads into physical retail.

Other retail challenges listed in the report include improving product assortment, effectively supporting last-mile delivery and warehousing of goods, cost-efficient customer service, the distractions of digital wallets and developing uncommon retail models.
