An old and somewhat martial saying in the business world goes: "If you don't advertise, you die." Sounds harsh, doesn't it? Well, perhaps because it's true. Retailers and companies don't just live from putting together great offers; they live from presenting them to interested customers. And today the digital storefront has become every bit as important as the physical one on the shopping street. But how do companies present themselves accurately in a digital world that can easily feel like sensory overload?
The internet is vast and there are inexhaustible ways to communicate. But not all channels make equal sense. Simply because they don't reach your customers. But how do you start a conversation with your own customers and, above all, where are you seen?
Owning data and making data usable are two very different challenges. Especially retailers who effectively use data can purposefully guide their own customers through the shopping process and turn them into regular customers.
Even the best product at the best price can become a shelf warmer if no one discovers it. Therefore, all goods and products of a retailer must be visible where customers can find them.
Is the item also directly available locally? Many customers ask themselves this question before they decide to visit a store. But for this, local store data must be synchronized almost in real time with your offers on the net automatically.
Visitors on your online offerings are great! But even greater is when these users become people who also enter your store in real life. This not only ensures perfect upselling chances but also builds a relationship!
Someone bought online from you — perfect! But now your customers want their goods as quickly as possible. Since the item is only a few hundred meters away in one of your stores, it can be shipped directly to the customer.
The internet moves fast, and what applies today may be outdated tomorrow. To be successful in the long term, retailers always need to keep an eye on every development — or work with a partner who does it for them.
Use the reach of Google and become visible on the world's most important search engine — with local offers and ads that Google displays prominently and preferentially to your local customers!
Some customers want to research online and reserve in advance before setting foot in the store. Because they want to "experience" goods before they decide to buy. With Click & Reserve, you offer them exactly this service.
Give your customers the option to order and pay for goods online and then pick them up in the store the same day.
Advise your customers extensively, supported by prepared data, directly in the sales conversation. Your staff gets access to online profiles and can include past purchases in the consultation.
Ship goods and products directly from your stores and rely on decentralized shipping logic. This way you make effective use of your existing infrastructure and reduce the need for central warehouses.
Bring your products directly to your customers' smartphones! With Shopgate's shopping apps, you tie your customers even closer to your company. Whether you're promoting exclusive offers and discounts or presenting your product catalog and your brand world.
Take advantage of local availability and at the same time be found online — thanks to Google's "Near Me" search, which more and more people use every day. How does it work? We'll tell you!
