LocalPulse for retail & grocery
Know which days the street will be busy, and why.
Store trade is moved by things outside the door: a warm Saturday, a payday, a cruise ship in port, school holidays, roadworks. LocalPulse reads those signals for your location and Jev sets a signed starting effect for each one based on what you sell and where you are; your sales history then measures what each actually does to you.
What moves your trade
The drivers that matter for retail & grocery
Typical directions to start from. For your business, Jev sets a signed starting effect for each driver from what you tell us about it; your own data then confirms or overrules each one, and the dashboard shows where they disagree.
Weathereither way
A garden centre and a shopping-mall store respond to the same rain in opposite directions. Each driver is signed for your store, not your industry.
Paydays and holidaysusually lifts
Payday weekends and the run-up to public holidays, modelled as separate drivers.
Cruise ships and visitorsusually lifts
Cruise calls near waterfront stores, sized by the ship's passenger capacity, from published port schedules.
Disruptionusually holds back
Road closures, strikes and severe weather from local news, dated to when they hit.
