Retail
Every day, your brand's biggest fans share stories about your products online. Connected customers now generate more than half a trillion impressions about products every year. Their influence on friends and followers is profound.
Retail: Social Shopping
Tech savvy always-on shoppers are always looking for a deal. Let’s face it; they know that the price they see on a brick & mortar shelf may be cheaper online, resulting in the showrooming challenge. With measured impact to their bottom lines, retailers look to technology that breeds a hybrid model of the the physical and digital shopping world to solve common challenges:
  • Customers love to engage with brands, but the direct connection between social, UGC and shopping is not clear.
  • Pre-purchase research takes place on social networks, but brands are not actively engaged in this process.
  • Unclear connections between social content conversions, and siloed social media and e-commerce systems.

Retail: In-Store Engagement
Tech savvy always-on shoppers are always looking for a deal. Let’s face it; they know that the price they see on a brick & mortar shelf may be cheaper online, resulting in the showrooming challenge. With measured impact to their bottom lines, retail marketing looks to technology that breeds a hybrid model of the the physical and digital shopping world, often dubbed phygital, to solve common challenges:
  • Customers want to see how products have been used by other customers but rarely have this opportunity in-store
  • The in-store customer experience is not interactive and doesn’t appeal to the modern shopper
  • In-store employees don’t have the product knowledge needed to answer customer questions
  • Employees are not empowered with tools to educate shoppers
