Annotated retail sketches representing journey mapping notes
  1. 01

    Scope lock

    Fixtures, missions, and banners confirmed with your account lead — access risks flagged early.

    Field capture

    Paired walks with merchandisers where allowed; still photography aligned to planogram IDs.

  3. 03

    Evidence index

    Night-of summaries so details do not evaporate before synthesis.

  4. 04

    Intervention draft

    Shelf interruption checks translated into prioritized actions with operational cautions.

  5. 05

    Playback

    Workshop for brand, distributor, and retail activation — language tuned to Korea floor realities.

  6. 06

    Archive

    Pack stored for seasonal revisits — not a one-off PDF lost in email threads.

  • Promo stacks planned without queue context

After

  • Time-stamped traces tied to real shelves
  • Intervention list everyone can point to on the floor
  • Explicit notes where photography was restricted
