Doesn’t it seem like retail just keeps getting more and more complicated? What with the proliferation of apps, sneaky online discounts, and ever-increasing popularity of online shopping, it seems like there’s no end to innovation. And it’s so easy to lag behind.
Customers are demanding more, the competition is growing, and then there’s the whole dwindling attention span issue. Try as you might to capture your customers’ hearts and dollars, it’s getting harder.
So what’s a retailer to do?
Put your customers first of course. Figure out how to create the best customer experience possible, so they keep coming back – and advocate on your behalf.
No, this doesn’t mean in-store valets and free snacks (although, I’m sure those never hurt). It means getting to know your customers – what they want, what they value, and how they interact with the brands they love. It means greater transparency and digital connections. It means using the right tech at the right time to craft meaningful interactions.
