Systems and methods are described for excluding individuals from retail analytics. Pedestrian traffic within a predetermined area is monitored via a video sensor to determine a video entrance. The video entrance may correspond to entrances of the predetermined area by a first set of individuals. The pedestrian traffic may also be monitored via a plurality of wireless sensors to determine a wireless entrance. The wireless entrance may correspond to entrances by a second set of individuals. The video entrance and the wireless entrance are compared to determine if any of the entrances associated with a video timestamp match any of the entrances with a wireless timestamp. An overall entrance count corresponding to the number of customers entering the predetermined area is determined. Retail analytics excluding employees may subsequently be calculated using the overall entrance count.
