Research Methodology
Our Method
Real time insights based on actual store sales
How it works
Our nationwide network of 300+ independent gift store owners complete a detailed survey to rank their best-selling items from the previous month, across 50 categories, based on actual store sales.
REPORTING STORES INCLUDE:
Card, Gift, Boutique, Speciality, and Home Decor
stores across every region of the country.
NO REPORTING STORES ARE AFFILIATED WITH ANY VENDORS SO YOU GET 100% UNBIASED DATA.
Point Values
Based on our reporting stores 3 best-selling gift items for that month, the products are ranked as follows...
Top Gift Item #1 ( 5 points )
Top Gift Item #2 ( 3 points )
Top Gift Item #3 ( 1 point )
Point values above are then totalled and ranked in descending order to create Giftbeat's TOP 10
product charts.
