REDWOOD CITY, Calif. — YottaMark, Inc. announced that it has released the latest version of the popular ShopWell mobile application on the iTunes store. The new version includes 'ShopWell missions' that invite users to provide feedback on products they have scanned, in return for instant rewards. ShopWell's users care about finding food that meets their personal dietary and wellness goals. ShopWell missions improve the communication between shoppers and the brands that value the opinions of specific customer segments.
The ShopWell app, which has over a million downloads, helps people make smart decisions about the food they eat. At home or in the store, shoppers simply scan a food's barcode to get nutrition information and find out if the food is a good match for their personalized dietary profile. The app's tremendous popularity and high level of engagement among shoppers who care about health and wellness brings a critical new capability to brand owners who want to listen to highly targeted segments of shoppers.
ShopWell Insights is a revolution in high fidelity market research. Questions about flavor, shelf life, packaging, customer satisfaction, or what's driving repurchase can be asked of very specific groups of shoppers – filtered by product affinity and dietary preferences. Marketers can now more easily understand how customers who want gluten free diets, or low salt, or have scanned cereal bars in a Walmart store for example, perceive their products.
"Over the last 2 years we experimented with collecting opinions about food from shoppers – and found not only extremely high interest from consumers, but also an incredibly rich source of valuable new data for brand owners", said Elliott Grant, YottaMark's Founder & CTO. He added, "With our launch of ShopWell Insights, a marketer can now determine which characteristics drive preference and repeat purchase among a very specific group of shoppers. Our team has worked really hard to make it ridiculously easy for brands to listen to shoppers. Whether it's a new strawberry variety or a higher fiber salty snack – shopper insights can make the difference between a profitable product and failure."
By helping brands listen to segments of shoppers who are often missed by traditional research tools, ShopWell Insights furthers the company strategy of making the world a better place to eat.
