2. Technology has transformed how consumers shop. With
a smartphone in the pocket of 70% of Britons, half the
country on Facebook and mobile internet covering over
three quarters of the UK, consumers have access to an
unprecedented number of touch points where they’re
in direct contact with retailers; a number which is set to
increase with the advent of new and innovative wearable
technologies. Where to shop in no longer a linear decision
making process; it’s a complex network of pathways.
It’s difficult for traditional businesses to thrive in a complex
and constantly changing market; many collapse, having
failed to adapt to new technologies. However, this shift
in consumer behaviour presents an opportunity for tech
savvy businesses to gain a deeper understanding of their
customers’ buying habits and predict their behaviour in
real time. Each customer touch point, be it a Google search,
clicking on an online ad or a tweet, leaves a trace of their
preferences and personalities. AI-Link can transform your
company into a smart business, collecting this wealth of data
and utilising it in your business model: because it’s huge,
because it’s a game changer, because it’s the future.
WHY?
THE OPPORTUNITY
Omnichannel retailing represents the biggest
growth opportunity for the consumer goods
and retail industry.
IT’S HUGE!
Omnichannel retailing
represents the biggest growth
opportunity for the consumer
goods and retail industry. In the
UK, online growth is forecast to
be 12% , compared to 2% store
based growth in the next five
years. (Ernst & Young)
80% of store shoppers check
prices online before buying
at a physical location; a third
of them do so instore using a
mobile phone, and $1.1 trillion
of store sales are influenced by
the web. (MIT)
AI-Link brings the intelligence
of online shopping to the
traditional retail market. By
2022 1/3 of UK retail will be
done online. (Ogilvy)
IT A GAME
CHANGER!
Utilising data has the potential
to increase internet retailer
margins by 60%.
(McKinsey Global Institute)
63% of consumers admit they
prefer to shop online and 83%
of shoppers saying that they
believe more stores will close
down unless they significantly
improve their instore service.
(Tensator)
Over 95% of nonstore sales are
incremental to store sales for
leading retailers. (Deloitte)
IT'S THE
FUTURE
Amazon invests 6% of sales
in technology, outspending
traditional retailers by a factor
of between 5 and 10.
Retailers are already adopting
a variety of strategies to stay
ahead as consumer behaviour
shifts. John Lewis increased
its investment in this area by
400%, rolling out strategies
such as Collect+, a Click &
Collect service that ties online
sales to physical locations.
The Economist states that IT
giants have spent $15 billion
to acquire firms specializing in
Big Data.
