What do you think the post-COVID retail landscape will look like?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

From a brick-and-mortar standpoint in a post-COVID retail landscape, in-person shopping will continue to be an intricate part of the consumer experience. While safety measures and social distancing will temporarily impact a shopper\u2019s behavior and confidence, they are ready to get out and shop their favorite retailers. Shopping is not only physiological, it\u2019s highly therapeutic as well. Expect continual retail growth and sales as we navigate a \u201cnew normal\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What will be the biggest challenges that the physical store have to deal with?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two biggest challenges a physical store will have to deal with are supply chain disruptions and managing sales channels. According to the US Census Bureau<\/a>  even in the midst of the pandemic and unprecedented shutdowns, 86% retail sales still came from a physical location. While every retailer is feeling the pressure of needing to be online, the biggest struggle will be the ability to assess where the actual profit centers and growth opportunities are for their business and how to accurately navigate the multiple sales channels they have available to them. As for supply chain issues, they will see a decrease in vendor fulfillment which will leave them with gaps to fill in order to reach revenue projections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As e-commerce and online competition grows, consumer loyalty will become even harder to achieve<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

How will customer loyalty be achieved?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As e-commerce and online competition grows, consumer loyalty will become even harder to achieve. When there are so many options and companies grasping for the customer\u2019s attention it will become more difficult to fight for attention. You can only gain loyalty of a customer through trust. Trust in values, confidence in products, and a personalized experience will ensure you build a brand your customers want to continue doing business with for years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What we are seeing now is a retail revolution. It\u2019s less about an omni-channel presence and more about omni-experience<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Are you optimistic about the future of retail?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Absolutely! Retail is always changing, it\u2019s the very nature of the business. What we are seeing now is a retail revolution. It\u2019s less about an omni-channel presence and more about omni-experience. Creating an omni-experience allows you to thread your business into your consumer\u2019s life. With technology and social media advancements, you can quite literally expose your customer to your brand daily and in so many more engaging ways. Can you imagine a world where we never step outside to buy anything again? Where you travel to cities and towns around the world but have no where to shop, buy a souvenir, or snag a one-of-a-kind gift? Me neither!Here is my bio and credentials if you need them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
