From Concept to Shelf in 10 Days
Turn Concepts into Prototypes
LPK’s designers and strategists transform your promising early concepts into realistic shelf-ready product and package prototypes.
Place Prototypes in Real Stores
We collaborate with our network of retail partners to place those prototypes live on shelf, enabling us to gauge real consumer buying behavior and capture shopper feedback via intercept interviews.
Gauge Real Purchase Behavior
Based on the qualitative shopper feedback and quantitative purchase conversion benchmarks, the proposition is iteratively refined prior to investing in development and full launch.
How Online Proto-Selling Works
From Concept to Website in 10 Days
Turn Concepts into Ads & Pages
LPK’s designers and strategists transform your promising early concepts into ads and landing page websites that state your product or services’ value proposition and highlight the key benefits.
Drive Shoppers to the Pages
LPK then drives traffic to the landing page websites via social media ads, and attempts to convert a sale as an indicator for purchase behavior.
Measure Purchase Behavior
Performance is measured by calculating the click-through rate from the ads and purchase conversion rates on each landing page. Out of all the visitors who viewed the page, how many attempted to purchase?
