GIS Solutions for Commercial Companies

Insight GIS can assist you in making vital business decisions using GIS technology by showing you where your customers are on a map.  This helps you identify ideal locations for your products or services, and make decisions about how to best manage your resources (such as staff and distribution networks).

With Digital Data and software products such as MapInfo Professional, AnySite, and Routefinder you can analyse information on maps and gain a clearer picture of what is happening in your markets.  Our GIS Consultancy, Data Processing and Map Production services enable you to capture the value of GIS technology without having to learn how to use it yourself.

Insight GIS can help you in these important areas:

Identifying the Size of Your Market
Using information about sales areas as well as ABS Census data or national address data, we can show you the number of potential customers in each of your sales areas.  Seeing this information clearly displayed on a map helps you make decisions about which customers to pursue.

Locating Target Markets
Using your own customer database we can map where your customers are located on a map.  You can then compare the location of customers to your current store locations and those of competitors.  This helps you understand more about your customers, and assists you in determining how to best service them.

Tracking Customer Behaviour
If you collect information about your customers’ purchasing behaviour (for example through loyalty card schemes) we can help you utilise this information by showing it on a map.  This allows you to quickly and easily see purchasing trends and make decisions about how to cater for these most effectively.

Improving Service Delivery
When deciding where to locate your products and services you need to evaluate the impact of factors such as demographics, potential markets, existing customers, and competitors.  We can assist you with this by sourcing suitable data and displaying it on a map so you can make more informed decisions.  Insight GIS has a high level of experience in this area and has worked with a number of commercial companies to help them successfully identify the most appropriate locations for their product and service outlets.
