Retail is Evolving at a Rapid Pace
Structure Your Business to Full Advantage
The growing pains to adapt can be hard. Today’s consumers demand more value and convenience. After COVID-19, their expectations changed even more. Add in the rising buying power of Millennials and other demographic shifts – consumers’ preference toward omni-channel shopping – and your business challenges really start to stack up.
In-store, online, overnight delivery, product pickup. Shopping is no longer just destination-focused, it’s a full consumer journey. Your storefront or online operations must adapt to a rapidly changing marketplace.
We can show you how and where to focus your retail strategy to maximize profits.
Frontline vs. Backline Efforts
Know What’s Driving Your Sales
The retail strategy to train for face-to-face customer interaction differs greatly from visual merchandising, order fulfillment and account management. They all have a place. But you only have so much month-to-month cash flow.
Knowing the cost-benefit ROI ratio for each and how it impacts customer service and retention are important to plan for profits. Without a targeted retail business strategy, you could be bleeding money on areas with the least-profitable returns.
“Wait & See” is Not a Strategy
Plan to Excel
It’s not all your fault. The retail industry is facing unprecedented change.
New consumer shopping habits, the shift toward online shopping and fulfillment, and shrinking brick-and-mortar retail—among many others – are greatly stressing you and your business. However, this evolution of the retail industry does not doom your business to certain failure.
It can be the opportunity to focus like a laser on your niche. But you must first get a clear understanding of your business today:
Determine Costs
- True operating costs
- Daily & monthly cash requirements
- Margin constraints
Control Inventory
- Inventory turnover
- Theft/shrinkage losses
- Square foot & space cost-yield
Define ROI
- Advertising & marketing effectiveness
- Store design
Train Staff
- Staff recruiting & training needs
