Impulse Purchases and FMCG: How Beam Wallet Turns Impulse into Smart Sales
Impulse purchases are an essential part of consumer behavior, especially when it comes to Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG). According to research, around 40% of supermarket purchases are made on impulse — without any prior planning. This phenomenon plays a crucial role for FMCG manufacturers and retailers, as it directly impacts sales volumes and business profitability.
Strategies to Boost Impulse Purchases
Manufacturers and retailers of FMCG products have long used various strategies to encourage impulse buying. But today, with Beam Wallet, these strategies can reach a whole new level of effectiveness. Here’s how:
1. Better Packaging
Investing in eye-catching packaging remains a powerful tool to increase a product's attractiveness and stimulate impulse buying.
However, with Beam Wallet, packaging impact goes beyond the physical. Through personalized offers and intelligent promotions sent directly to the customer’s wallet at the right moment, brands can capture the consumer’s attention in a new and innovative way.
Practical example with Beam Wallet:
Imagine a customer glancing at a refreshing drink and instantly receiving an exclusive cashback or instant voucher via Beam Wallet. Packaging draws attention, Beam Wallet closes the sale.
2. Promotions and Discounts
Special discounts and bonuses have always been direct ways to drive sales. But their efficiency multiplies when combined with Beam Wallet's real-time personalized actions.
Rather than relying on shelf tags, Beam Wallet allows retailers to send time-limited offers directly to customers in the store.
Example:
As a customer walks past the snack aisle, they receive:
"Today only: Buy 2, get 1 free! Exclusive via Beam Wallet."
Result? The customer feels privileged — and the sale is made.
3. Strategic Product Placement
Placing products in strategic spots like eye-level shelves or near the checkout remains effective. But Beam Wallet adds a digital layer to product placement.
Using AI-powered suggestions, Beam Wallet identifies which products are relevant to each customer, and promotes them right when and where it matters.
Example:
If Beam Wallet sees a customer often buys chocolates, as soon as they approach the candy section, they get an exclusive discount notification for a new chocolate brand.
4. Emotional Connection
Emotional triggers like music and pleasant scents influence impulse buying. But Beam Wallet offers a new emotional dimension:
By sending personalized messages, rewards, and exclusive offers, Beam Wallet builds direct emotional relationships with customers.
Example:
"Hi, Sarah! Today, enjoy 10% back on your favorite coffee — just because you deserve it."
