Redesigning the store for customers of today and tomorrow
Drive differentiation with multichannel retail experiences
This episode of That Makes Cents explores the future of retail and how retailers must advance their strategy on convenience, product, and profitability to create innovative, customer-centric shopping experiences.
Redesigning the store for customers of today and tomorrow
In recent years, consumers’ expectations of greater convenience and desire to stay “hyperconnected” through multiple channels has pushed retailers to rethink their approach to innovative and customer-centric shopping experiences. How do you design a store that achieves this? How do you balance conveniences with profitability? Daniel Eckert, operating partner at Corsair Capital, and Adam York, a senior manager at Deloitte Consulting LLP, join this episode to discuss.
The term ‘omnichannel’ in my opinion, if I’m painting a picture of the future, is probably a term of the past. I’ve always defined omnichannel as selling all the stuff that I have through every channel that I can. And the reality is that it really has become a blended commerce equation where you have both digital tools that you can do from your phone or from your desktop that maybe connect to a micro-fulfillment center or store to be fulfilled.
