2 How To Use This Report
Sense360 is an insights frm with a panel of over 2 million anonymous consumers and data on more than 150 million consumer trips per month. By understanding the visits and journeys of millions of people in the real-world, we are able to provide restaurants and retailers with detailed competitive and consumer insights.
Below is a description of the performance metrics measured in this report:
Share of Visits Score - This score is a direct measurement of the percentage of all QSR Visits garnered by the speci- fed brand.
Loyalty Score - This score measures customers’ commit- ment to a brand vs. the QSR category. In other words, if a customer visits QSR Brand [x], what percentage of that customer’s visits does Brand [x] account for vs. the rest of the QSR category.
Brand Draw Score - This score is essentially a localized Share of Visits that helps you understand what percentage of QSR visits within 0.5 miles of a brand’s locations were to that specifc brand. This helps you understand the ability of a brand to draw customers who are within close proximity of one of its locations.
Our data goes way beyond this benchmark. Schedule a demo.
