How can you create an omni-channel path for buyers using physical, human and digital elements? And how can you create your own unique experience signature? Alasdair Lennox, ECD for FITCH EMEA presents at Offline/Online conference in Moscow -March 2015.
6. 1. Physical, Human & Digital
FITCH believes that a combination of Physical, Human and Digital
(PHD) touch points results in a Seamless Experience.
Narrative:
“The world of retail is now infinitely splintered. Today's shoppers
have an abundance of choice – whether in a store, online or on
mobile. The old notion of a linear customer journey is evolving
into a mosaic approach. Retailers must create seamless
experiences that keep shoppers engaged with their brand.
FITCH believes that a combination of Physical, Human and
Digital (PHD) touch points results in a Seamless Experience.”
10. Narrative:
“To a greater extent, the digital & operational departments have
led the charge during the race to develop omni-channel.
As a consequence FITCH are observing that large retailers
omni-channel executions are becoming increasingly technically
sophisticated, however becoming increasingly brand experience
weak.
All touch points need be infused with the brand’s DNA and work
in harmony together, to achieve being an Experience Signature.”

and work in harmony together, to create a unique experience.
13. Narrative:
“FITCH and Microsoft have partnered to illuminate the ‘black
box’ store environment through the first intelligent retail analytics
& interaction system.
Our measurement tool allows brands and retailers to develop
truly agile, omni-channel collations within the physical store
environment.”
3. Retail Analytics
“I can’t improve it if I can’t measure it” William Thomson, Lord Kelvin 1906
18. Narrative:
“Customers expect that in-store environments should rapidly
evolve. Retailers need to be more responsive to changing trends
and emerging platforms than ever before.
We have a set of agile retailing tools that shift retailers to a
rolling program of innovation that is constantly experimenting,
piloting and measuring impact with customers.
Test, learn and adapt. Create a roadmap of innovation”
