Over the last decade, brick-and-mortar retailers have been forced to deal with the Internet and the broadband communications revolution. Internet ubiquity, personal technology adoption, and e-commerce growth have produced a new consumer behavior—cross-channel shopping. In this environment, consumers hop from one channel to another throughout the shopping journey looking for the best deal (eg. showrooming). There’s no doubt that the invasion of retail stores by these mobile enablers of virtual shopping has been costly. Not just in sales, but in customer loyalty, too. In the Singapore context, rising rents (40 – 50% of total sales) and labour cost is forcing retailers to review their retail and digital strategy. Specifically, how digital can be leveraged to drive engagement, footfall and sales – to augment traditional retail in a holistic manner. Tao of Shop is an Omni-Channel Retail platform that enables any shop / mall / F&B operator to Engage, Sell, Reward and Service consumers on their digital and physical stores. 1. Fully integrated digital solution – engage your customers with News, Coupons, eCommerce and Rewards via your own branded website, mobile apps and social media. 2. Indoor or micro location capability that integrates mobile with your brick and mortar outlets. You can now accurately identify customers in-store (without the need to open the mobile application) - enabling you to reward for footfall and engage them with personalized coupons and messages. 3. An automated marketing & retail recommendation engine with insights to your customer database – giving you the capability to automate personalize sales and marketing based on customers’ profiles, transaction history and location.

We will have to start downsizing our stores over the next five years as customers
shift to e-commerce.
On their smaller stores: “When you combine lower rents, lower build out and a
smaller total footprint with high sales per square foot, it’s a very powerful economic
model.”
Walter Robb, Co-CEO
“We’re looking for more ways to combine our e-commerce business into our bricks-
and-mortar stores to create an integrated, multichannel shopping experience for
our guests.”
Daniel Duty, Director of Enterprise Strategy

“But physical shopping still has its place. Many
consumers still see it as a socialising activity
with friends; to others, it can be an
entertainment,” he added. “What individual
retailers must do to survive in this new world is
to understand what consumers want and
behave, and then respond accordingly.”
“The pervasiveness of the Internet has turned everything upside down. This
is a trend that’s really picked up pace in the last three years. Before that,
tablets were a novelty; now, consumers are now able to conduct their own
research and purchase on mobile devices or home computers,”
