FINALIST: Business Book Awards 2020 - Sales and Marketing Category According to many reports, the physical retail experience is in crisis as more and more consumers shift to internet shopping. Despite this, the majority of global purchases still happen offline, from 90% of sales in the US through to 92% of sales in the UK and 94% in China. The big change is that today's shopper seeks content and advice online before buying in store. Omnichannel Retail celebrates all the advantages of the physical shopping experience, from its sensory selection through to try-before-you buy, and its potential for providing an instant and profitable retail solution, while explaining the imperative of bringing the power of digital and an omnichannel experience to everyday shopping. Connecting the digital customer to the physical customer, Omnichannel Retail delivers a wealth of opportunities for the bricks and mortar store, including an enhanced customer journey, effortlessly tailoring specific products to a particular customer, exploiting surge pricing, upselling lucrative products and above all, building real, and profitable, relationships with your best customers. Based on over thirty years in loyalty marketing, Tim Mason diligently addresses the challenges facing retailers, providing tangible and proven solutions to capitalize on the changing retail landscape.

How to build winning stores in a digital world

Omnichannel Retail

Amazon è la protagonista indiscussa del commercio nel ventunesimo secolo: nata come libreria online, è diventata una delle aziende più quotate al mondo ed è leader di mercato nel cloud computing e nelle tecnologie per lo shopping. Amazon illustra con autorevolezza le strategie di business del gigante dell'ecommerce, analizzando il suo ruolo di outsider e agente della disruption, e il suo impegno per creare valore a lungo termine per i clienti. Questo libro spiega come l'insoddisfazione profonda di Amazon per lo status quo l'abbia condotta a impegnarsi nella creazione di un'offerta retail senza pari, stravolgendo interi settori ma anche innovando nel ramo dell'intrattenimento, della logistica e della tecnologia per creare una customer experience inimitabile e priva di attriti. Frutto delle ricerche di analisti leader del settore, questa guida ritrae l'azienda a uno snodo cruciale della sua evoluzione: il momento in cui comprende che "l'online-only" non basta più. Analizza l'impatto della strategia click-and-mortar di Amazon, offrendo consigli preziosi ai retailer che vogliano reinventare il negozio fisico con il passaggio dalla centralità delle transazioni alla centralità delle esperienze e del servizio.

Come il retailer più inarrestabile del mondo continuerà a rivoluzionare il commercio

The retail industry is facing unprecedented challenges. Across all sectors and markets, retailers are shifting their business models and customer engagement strategies to ensure their survival. The rise of online shopping, and its primary player, Amazon, is at the heart of many of these changes and opportunities. Amazon explores the e-commerce giant's strategies, providing original insight at a time when the company is on the cusp of revolutionizing itself even further. Amazon's relentless dissatisfaction with the status quo is what makes it such an extraordinary retailer. This book explores whether Amazon has what it takes to become a credible grocery retailer, and as it transitions to bricks and mortar retailing, explores whether Amazon's stores can be as compelling as its online offering and if innovations such as voice technology, checkout-free stores and its Prime ecosystem will fundamentally change the way consumers shop. Written by industry leading retail analysts who have spent decades providing research-based analysis and opinion, Amazon analyzes the impact these initiatives will have on the wider retail sector and the lessons that can be learned from its unprecedented rise to dominance, as stores of the future become less about transactions and more about experiences.
