Are Consumers Embracing Video-First, Click-to-Connect Solutions As Part Of The Buying Journey?

By Sean Ludick, President of BDS | 11.20.20

2020 has been a great lesson for us all. We have been reminded, amongst many things, that the tides of retail hold...

Consumers are changing.
So are we.

While retail has always been a changing environment, that evolution has never been as fast or as complex than it is today. The new tech savvy, lifestyle and experience-driven consumer has disrupted the way brands and retailers approach the purchase journey, and the expectations have completely changed.

SEE WHAT OUR EXPERTS SAY

Be there when your customer decides.

Brands and retailers that are not adapting to these increased consumer expectations are becoming obsolete. To achieve success, you need to let consumers experience your brand under their terms, show them how your products fit in their lives, give them the flexibility to buy anytime, and be right there when they ultimately decide to make a purchase.

BUILD MY PLAN

“Maintaining a strategic advantage at retail means leading and embracing change. Today’s ‘anywhere, anytime’ purchase opportunities will be won by those retailers who offer a seamless and meaningful customer experience that focuses on emotionally connecting consumers to products, simplifying the purchase, and turning ‘buying’ into a ‘destination’ – regardless of where or when it happens.”

“Always have a tight process, but never be afraid to hone it. What a client needs today is not necessarily what they will need tomorrow.”

James Finnegan

“Customization of products and services is not enough to win the hearts of customers anymore. In order to win the sale, brands must provide a ‘customer-centric’ shopping experience. This means providing shoppers with exceptional customer experience before AND after the sale. From the digital experience, to the shelf experience, to the in-store point of sale experience, we drive influence at every point in the shopper journey.”

“What’s the voice of your brand at retail? If you are willing to listen, we bet you would want to change it. Developing organic brand advocates ensures your product is recommended when it matters most – at the point of sale.”
