Using algorithms powered by AI (artificial intelligence), e-retailers know what their customers are most likely to buy and which products to surface for them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\">The collective data is studied and integrated into seamless business plans designed to ensure success. Guess what? On the consumer&#8217;s end, this simply translates into more shopping enjoyment for the user, encouraging them to repeat online purchases.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\"><strong>Fact:<\/strong> Today&#8217;s average retail store is not designed to compete with robust eCommerce sites. Is your brick-and-mortar retail store evolving fast enough to keep up with the needs of your customers who have grown used to the intelligent world of online shopping?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\">An excellent example is Miniso, who realized at one point that in order to know if their marketing strategy is working with customers, they needed to have fingertip access to information like conversion rate of purchases, where the \u2018hot areas\u2019 of the stores are and the footfall analysis of their stores. Later on, with the help of customized AI (artificial intelligence)-powered surveillance, they were able to find all the solutions required to increase their retail sales.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\"><strong>Quiz: How many of these do you know the answers to?<\/strong><br \/>\n<em><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\">How many customers were in your store today or yesterday?<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\">In which sections did the customers linger on most and the least?<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\">What attracted them the<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> m<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ost?<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\">What are their browsing habits like?<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\">When is the best time to stock the shelves?<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\">What is the best display format for your goods?<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\">Who are the store regulars, and what are their purchasing patterns like?<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\">Who are the window shoppers, and what catches their attention the most?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\">Hence, as more shoppers spend online, the only way a physical retailer can survive is by providing their shoppers with a similarly (or even more) relevant and high-value customer experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\">The good news is &#8211; your business doesn&#8217;t have to fall victim to circumstances just because you&#8217;re late to the latest technology game.
