Are you into selling apparels, gift items and promotional products but still short of targeted sales? Give your business the much required boost with e-commerce and better customer engagement to spin your sales and break the targets!
In today’s business landscape where a customer can choose from tens of thousands of products it is more challenging than ever before to get your customers’ attention and make the sell. So what will make your apparels or gift items stand out in the sea of alike items? Number one is service and number two is customer engagement.
Look at some of the findings below,
As per the report by Forrester
“The growth of ecommerce, which already accounts for about 8% of total retail sales in the U.S., is expected to outpace sales growth at bricks-and-mortar stores over the next five years, reaching $370 billion in sales by 2017.”
In another case, Centre for Retail Research published its analysis of how UK retailing will have changed by 2018
“Customers now ‘shop’ in multiple ways, checking a store’s website, visiting one or more stores, looking at product reviews, viewing the prices of competitors on a smartphone whilst standing outside a store, and choosing finally whether to buy the goods in-store or online and collect it in-store or have it delivered to a nominated address. Retailers have to make clear strategic responses to the changing patterns of how consumers shop, including: deciding the proper number, type and location of stores (and the speed of any necessary disinvestment from stores); and how to integrate fully their physical stores, the online sites and other channels such as social media coherently.”
