Product sampling agency in Kerala

Touchvane is a product sampling agency in Kerala that puts your product in people's hands at the moment they are ready to buy. We plan the outlets, train the promoters, run live sampling and report what happened, outlet by outlet, so a launch or a festive push turns into real trial.

When sampling is the right tool

Sampling works best when the product sells itself once tasted, touched or tried: a new flavour, a new variant, a new pack size or a brand entering Kerala for the first time. A shopper who has already tasted the product is far more likely to pick it up than one who has only seen an ad.

It also works when timing matters. Festive seasons, school reopening and weekend mall traffic all bring buyers into the same places at the same time. We plan sampling around those windows rather than spreading it thin across the calendar.

Where we run sampling

  • Supermarkets and modern trade: sampling at the shelf, where trial can turn straight into a purchase.
  • Malls: branded stalls in high-footfall zones for chocolates, snacks, beverages and personal care.
  • Colleges and campuses: games-led sampling that gives students a reason to stop and try.
  • Events, residential communities and offices: when the audience is defined and the setting is calm enough for a real conversation.

How a sampling campaign runs

We start by choosing outlets on footfall and fit, not on convenience. Promoters are recruited, trained on the product story and briefed on hygiene and stock handling. During the campaign, supervisors check attendance and field photos daily, and stock is reconciled outlet by outlet. At the end you get a report of where the campaign ran, how many consumers were engaged and what they said.

Planning a sampling campaign: what to decide

  • The goal: trial, feedback, or sales at the shelf. Each needs a different outlet mix and measure.
  • Outlets and timing: which supermarkets, malls or campuses, and which days and hours carry the most footfall.
  • Sample format and stock: pack size, storage, hygiene and how stock moves to each outlet.
  • The pitch: one clear line about what is new, plus the offer that turns trial into purchase.
  • What gets reported: consumers engaged, samples given, feedback captured, outlet by outlet.

Frequently asked questions

How many outlets should a sampling campaign cover?

It depends on the product, the budget and how long the campaign runs. A Kerala-wide festive launch we ran covered 10–15 major supermarkets across districts; a city launch can start with a handful of high-footfall outlets.

Do you handle the promoters and their training?

Yes. We recruit, train and brief promoters on the product, the pitch and stock handling, and supervise them in the field with attendance and photo checks.

Can you collect consumer feedback during sampling?

Yes. Trial and feedback capture is part of how we run sampling, so you learn how people responded as well as how many tried the product.

Which districts can you cover?

We plan and run sampling across Kerala, from Thiruvananthapuram to Kozhikode, with campaigns sized to the outlets you want to reach.

Which brands use product sampling?

Food, beverage, confectionery, personal care and household brands, especially when launching a new variant or entering a new district.
