"Inside the Mind of the Shopper is the preeminent handbook for any marketer or retailer seeking to understand why people do what they do when they shop. Armed with the knowledge in this book, marketers and retailers can work together to predict how shoppers will respond (or not!) to package and label design, selling messages, shelf plans, and the entire retail space."
-Matt Ohligschlager, Senior Manager, Consumer and Market Knowledge, Procter & Gamble

On the ground, managers THINK they know their shoppers, but anyone who follows Herb's handbook on shopper insights will know them a lot better."
-Joel Rubinson, Chief Research Officer, The Advertising Research Foundation
