- In-Store Media 36 According to Mintels exclusive consumer
research, 43% of mass merchandiser shoppers stated that it is
extremely or very important to them that the retailers they
patronize provide ways for them to learn about new products and
other topics of interest. As such, the potential for this factor to
influence sales should not be overlooked mintel.com Of particular
importance is the ability of electronic media to communicate the
value of various products, thereby reducing the common fixation on
price. By educating customers about the value of quality products,
retailers can highlight store worth while reducing price
sensitivity. mintel.com
