Report Info
With a dizzying array of options at their fingertips, today’s consumer can be hard to win—and even harder to hold onto. They’re here today, gone tomorrow. Except when they’re not. Once a retailer or brand outperforms the rest, shoppers will come back time and again. Cracking the code on how to induce that form of loyalty is the challenge. Is it product, service or convenience? The truth is, it’s all of the above.
It’s a tall order for retailers, especially those that built their businesses before e-commerce and social media blasted onto the scene.
