Omni Channel Marketing Conference - Kylie Fuentes

Tony Booth
Tony Booth

This document discusses how online and offline behaviours influence each other for today's consumers. It notes that most retailers are struggling to keep up with the pace of technological change and evolving shopper expectations. The key forces driving retail revolution are new shopper expectations informed by online behaviours, and the abundance of sales channels and devices shaping the new omnichannel shopping journey from discovery to purchase. It emphasizes that retailers must measure performance across all channels as an integrated ecosystem rather than in silos, and leverage mobile and location data to provide a consistent brand experience and personalized services.

IMPACT ON RETAIL IS HUGE Australian smartphone users are actively searching for information about products & services. M-commerce conversion is still relatively low, its main function is to facilitate search & drive conversion to offline or desktop.

MOBILE IS LOCAL Mobile search is anchored in location. Omni Channel retailers are perfectly positioned to take advantage of this opportunity, using mobile to drive in-store visitation. Source: Our Mobile Planet Australia, Think With Google 2012
TABLET PROVIDES DIFFERENT UTILITY Tablet combines the benefits of deeper richer experiences found on desktop with the portability of mobile, creating powerful opportunities for retailers. In-store & out of store. Source: Mary Meeker, Internet Trends 2012
UNLEASHING THE POTENTIAL WITH DATA
SINGLE VIEW OF SHOPPER The holy grail of Omni Channel, it promises to unlock huge benefits for retailers. Both superior shopper insights to fuel business strategy & greater ROI for marketing investments due to better targeting.
RELATIONSHIP: EXCHANGE OF VALUE Not all shoppers want a relationship & not all retailers deserve one. Provide value for the shopper in exchange for their data & make sure they understand it. Theres a fine line between relevant messaging & invasion of space. Transparency & respect for the shopper is paramount
SHOPPER INSIGHTS & DATA APPLICATION Review the historical, aggregated data to form deeper shopper insights & fuel future business strategy. But just as importantly, integration into campaign management & content management platforms delivers real time, personalised shopper marketing capability, which drives greater ROI Looking back & trying to predict Moment of truth: Right message, the future right time, right channel
THINK BIG, BUT START SMALL Even the best of the best are grappling with how to sort & use their data set. But the ones who are most advanced have a few things in common. Platform first. A central, scalable data warehouse Aggregate sales, customer & location data around a unique ID. Big effort but big returns Data without intelligence is useless. Analytics integration into campaign management systems Make it easy for yourself. Use the same customer credentials across channels if possible Start with what you have. Implement retargeting or trigger based programs Test & Learn. Test & Learn. Test & Learn
GEOLOCATION: THE NEXT FRONTIER Location based data from mobile, WiFi & social will give retailers unprecedented ability to influence at the moment of truth. Beyond purchase data, its the most important lever. Location contextual offers & content Location based services & utilities (including navigation) Retargeting from online browse & purchase behaviour Real time retargeting from showroom behaviour (while still in store!) Notifications to sales staff for high value customer visits Truly personalised in-store service In depth understanding of customer instore behaviour
SIX OBSERVATIONS FROM THOSE WHO DO IT BETTER
1. REFRAME THE MEASURE OF SUCCESS Measure the performance of your ecosystem, not single channel revenue. Understand the value your online channels play in influencing your offline sales channels. Create KPIs to support & instill this thinking into your organisation. For every $1 spent online influences $5.77 in store Terry Lundgren, CEO Macys, Apple
2. OPTIMISE YOUR MOBILE OFFERING Take advantage of your web traffic by optimising for mobile. You dont need to take your whole web offering & mobilise it, but get your core information & location centric product search up and running.
3. LET THE CUSTOMER DECIDE Provide customers with the option to purchase in their channel of choice. Dont force them to one or the other, but make sure you have a presence where & when they want it. Physical stores are still the primary way people acquire merchandise, and I think that will be true 50 years from now Ron Johnson, CEO J.C Penny ex SVP Retail Operations, Apple Adapted from Forrester Research, 2012
4. NOT ALL DEVICES WERE CREATED EQUAL Shoppers use them in different ways along different stages of the path to purchase. Identify the role each device plays for your consumer, then create content & utility to suit. Everything everywhere is NOT the answer. Discovery Tablet offers deeper, richer browsing experiences. Broad Find & Search Desktop supports comprehensive search & product comparisons Buy Local Find & Search Mobile is out of home & in-store Location based search & navigation utilities
5. LEVERAGE THE STRENGTH OF YOUR ASSETS Converge the digital & physical experiences. Integrate across platforms to add value for your shoppers & play to the strength of your channels.
6. BE CLEAR ABOUT THE VALUE YOU PROVIDE If youre not 100% sure what value you bring to your shoppers, you cant expect them to know either. Dont just venture into new influence or sales channels because you can, be clear about why you should.
IDENTIFYING SOME OF THE ROADBLOCKS
WAITING FOR ENLIGHTENMENT Many fall into the trap of wanting to have the perfect strategy, the final destination & the nirvana of technology at their disposal. The longer you wait, the bigger the missed opportunity. The key is to get in and try.
OVER-ENGINEERING YOUR DIGITAL CHANNELS Its tempting to come up with feature sets that address every single possible thing that could be of benefit to your shopper. Its MOST important you set your sights on the Minimum Viable Product that addresses the CORE needs perfectly.
DEFINING SUCCESS AFTERWARDS The key to getting your data & your channel strategy right is knowing what success looks like upfront. Often key components for data capture & channel measurement are tacked on as an afterthought. This usually leads to less accurate, more costly & more time consuming retrofits.
DROWNING IN DATA Data overload leads to poorer, not better decision making. Make sure youve got the capability to fuel your business by equipping the right people with the right information at the right time. Find time to turn data into insights. If you dont, youre not taking advantage of the opportunity
INFLUENCE & SALES CHANNELS: MEASURE THEM AS AN ECOSYSTEM RIGHT CHANNEL, RIGHT EXPERIENCE THROUGH THE NEW SHOPPER JOURNEY MOBILE MERGES ONLINE & OFFLINE: BUT MOST RETAILERS ARE BEHIND THE GAME CREATE AN EXCHANGE OF VALUE WITH YOUR SHOPPERS TO BUILD RELATIONSHIP BESIDES PURCHASE DATA, LOCATION DATA IS KING DONT WAIT FOR PERFECTION.
