In store demonstrations are one of the most cost-effective ways to "get your product out to the masses".
It is one thing seeing your product attractively packaged and displayed on the shelf, but nothing compares to actually tasting, smelling and experiencing - sampling - your food product first hand at the Point of Sale. Around 85% of purchasing decisions are made at the Point of Sale. If your product is standing out because of the additional experiential experience that National Marketing Services is creating for you by offering samples, you will get the edge over your competitors and make sure that it's your product and brand that find their way into customers baskets, and onto your bottom line.

The role of a mystery shopper is to experience and report back on the level of service they receive. Supermarkets, local and national stores, restaurants, banks, government services can each benefit from a mystery shopper programme.
Maybe you already have one in place with a reporting structure, but you would like some new faces to carry out the reporting. Otherwise we can design a system for you with schedules and reports.

We aim to reach a full understanding of the company and our services are tailored to meet the exact needs of the business and an individual programme is installed for each of our clients.
- Road Shows
Road shows can be similar to street events in nature but with a greater level of planning and co-ordination, usually covering a large geographic area.
Depending on the scale of the activity we may send out several teams of staff, who, from day to day could be promoting in different cities or towns.
National brands usually engage in road show activity when they want to launch a product on a large scale. Often this is in a relatively short amount of time to gain maximum effect and exposure.
Road show locations and routes may include visits to all national supermarkets where promotional activity will take place.
