Buyer Orientation Reports & Marketing Trends
Icecat measures end-user buyer orientation and catalog popularity of tens of thousands of connected ecommerce sites. This is measured by datasheet downloads. Data-sheet download: every time an end-user views a product datasheet in a real-time connected webshop or a data-sheet is imported in a channel partner's online catalog. Icecat already enables more than one billion data-sheet downloads annually. These downloads are the basis of our buyer-orientation and popularity reports, which we share with participating manufacturers. Icecat provides the reports in different formats: graphical, Excel, CSV, email, etc.
Icecat has 3 variants of download reports:
- Standard reports, include downloads per brand, category and/or product (own brand)
- Competitor reports, showing popularity on brand, category and product level (includes competitor brands)
- Channel partner reports, include your brand downloads on partner level.
