Zusammenfassung
Creates a probability surface to predict the sales potential of an area based on distance and attractiveness factors.
Verwendung
The results of the Huff Model can be used to:
- Estimate market potential.
- Define and analyze market potential.
- Assess economic impact of a new site location.
- Forecast sales and potential of existing stores and outlets.
- Assess the impact of competitive and environmental changes on outlet performance.
The first step to executing this tool is to define a study area that includes all the trade areas of all competing stores being analyzed.
The Sales Potential Layer is usually a polygon features representing subareas where the potential customers live. Point features can also be used; for example, block centroids that have associated demographic data.
The Competitive Store Layer should include all competitive locations in a given study area. This layer should also include any of your existing store locations in the study area, since they will act as competitors to a new store location. In most cases, the competitive store layer will be a Business Analyst store layer.
Competitive store locations can be extracted from the Add Business Listings function in Business Analyst.
A higher Distance Coefficient indicates that distance will have a greater impact on consumer behavior. For example, consumers are more willing to travel farther for high-order goods, such as automobiles and furniture, than they are for low-order goods, such as groceries.
The output of the Huff Model generates probabilities and estimated sales for each subgeographic area. The output probabilities can be used to define primary market (trade) areas for a new store location. For example, a trade area can be created using the Dissolve By Attribute tool to create a primary market area that includes all the subgeography areas that have a probability higher than 40 percent of patronizing the new store location.
The spatial reference of the output feature class will be the same as the Sales Potential Layer.
The Potential Sales Field measure the attractiveness of a store. The values in this field, also known as predictor values, often include attributes of a store, such as square footage, number of parking spaces, advertising, store hours, prices, age, appearance, signage, accessibility, and so forth.
