Find your high-potential buyers
Not every shopper offers the same opportunity for growth. Target Group Profiler identifies the buyers with the greatest potential to grow your brand – whether they're existing customers with room to spend more or shoppers who are most likely to become future buyers.
Using advanced modelling, we identify "buyer twins" – shoppers who share the same Shopper DNA as your best customers but are not yet fully engaged with your brand. This creates a realistic and actionable view of untapped growth potential.

Quantify growth with confidence
Knowing who your potential buyers are is only part of the picture. Target Group Profiler measures the size and value of your opportunity by quantifying potential in terms of buyers, volume, and revenue.
Whether your objective is increasing penetration, growing loyalty, strengthening activation, or supporting long-term growth strategies, you gain a clear understanding of the commercial opportunity before investing resources.
