How The Retail Environment is Changing in The Coming Decade

September 16, 2020 / by Andrew / Leave a Comment

Retail is, by all means, a very fluid industry. It is easily affected by trends and customer preferences and often takes on a lot more than just the sale of products and services.

In fact, understanding how Retail works will help you set up your company’s effectiveness as we enter into the new decade. In this article, we have gathered some important points you need to remember to ensure that your company fellows up wth existing trends and makes a positive impact in the future.

Start by knowing your target group

A target audience is a lot more than just consumers that want to buy your products. And this is also very important for the retail sector. Everything you do surrounds the customer – how you promote the product, how you package it, how you stimulate repeat purchases – literally… everything!

So it would be very important to start by researching the needs of your audience. Who are they? What are their biggest problems? What do they really want? If you manage to create a strong buyer persona and a few relevant segments you are off to a good start.

Eliminate the unnecessary

A lot of your efforts may just be driven by past successes. But it is important to remember that the industry is constantly changing. For example, customers no longer need to bring their loyalty cards into the store to buy products. Not only is this unnecessarily complex for the average consumer’s attention span, but it is also one more process than can fit in your phone.

Companies like Retail CRM Cloud help businesses build better loyalty programs by taking out all the tangible elements and putting them all within an easy to use a smartphone app. That’s right, everything that is in your pocket and is not a phone should eventually become part of your phone.

Trends don’t stay long

If you are old enough to remember the “jeans” era, you probably remember how the trend played out over a long period of time – many years even. Nowadays, trends are no longer very firm and strong. In fact, they fluctuate all the time, depending on many different factors.

This is why it may be a good idea to decrease the size of your product lines and offer limited amounts of products only at the peak of a trend. For example, over the past few months, we have seen fashion retailers give more emphasis on baggy clothing that has a unisex appeal, similar to the clothing style of Billie Eillish, who is becoming more popular over time.

Finally, stand for something

Companies no longer sell products – they sell a relationship based on strong values that have a political meaning. Whether a company donates part of your funds for a good cause or supports diversity, there are many things you could do to identify with your audience.

By doing so, you create a stronger bond with your audience, who will eventually make more purchases from your brand due to this. The best way to start with this is to pay attention at the problems and wishes of your audience.
