šŸ’” What does TrafficTracer help you do?

The success of any location depends on more than just square footage or rent. With TrafficTracer, you can uncover a site’s true potential by understanding how many people pass by, when they do so, and where they’re coming from.

You can:

  • Assess location potential for store openings or relocations
  • Understand traffic trends and seasonality
  • Measure cannibalization risk from nearby stores
  • Show the value of retail parks to prospective tenants
  • Choose optimal billboard placements
  • Evaluate the impact of city events or tourism
