Shaping seamless retail with unique Experience SignaturesFITCH
The search for the elusive seamless retail offer should begin with an understanding of the Physical, Human and Digital (PHD) dynamics of each and every shopping experience.
FITCH believes that retailers and brands need to look beyond ‘just digital’ in order to create a ‘unique experience signature’ to build competitive advantage.
Generous Brands 2.0: Retail’s ongoing journey towards the greater goodFITCH
Emotional connection with shoppers has always sat at the heart of the essence of our industry, and yet there are still precious few retailers putting their money where their mouths are towards a new agenda of social wellbeing.
5 years ago FITCH identified the move towards this trend with its Generous Brands white paper, a ground breaking challenge to the retail industry to take up the mantle and to change both operations and culture from a focus solely on the bottom line to one marrying commercial realities with a responsibility towards a higher purpose.
The time has come to revisit this topic as retail finds itself poised at a moment of profound change – most pointedly the approaching dominance of Gens Y and Z on the shopping landscape, collectively the largest block of consumers in history and by far the most socially conscious.
Against this backdrop it is more important now than ever before for brands and retailers to align their higher purpose with their business goals. Only then will they become not only unique, but relevant and memorable to those that they seek to serve.

The Future Consumer: How Tech is Disrupting RetailRetailOasis
Digital technology is disrupting the retail industry, with over half of dollars now being spent with some digital influence, up from 36 cents in 2014. Society is shifting from an information economy to a conceptual one where workers are creators and inventors. The future consumer will also be a creator as the decreasing costs of technology and decentralization of innovation empowers individuals at the bottom. This means a move from top-down innovation to bottom-up, collaboration over competition, and effectiveness over just efficiency.
The document discusses the future of newsagencies and lessons that can be learned from businesses that have adapted successfully to change. It notes that newsagencies will need to embrace flexibility, entrepreneurship, and actively pursuing new categories and revenue streams. Newsagents who are growing their businesses look outside their industry for ideas, hire smart people, and take responsibility for their own business plans rather than relying only on suppliers. The future belongs to newsagents who act like entrepreneurs and adapt to changes in technology and consumer behavior.

The document provides lessons and forecasts for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in navigating future business trends and economic conditions. It discusses that SMEs will need to focus on niche markets rather than mass production; leverage online marketing rather than comparing themselves to big businesses; invest in building relationships through frequent engagement with customers; and focus on value rather than considering themselves mere companies. It also forecasts that the recession will drive more entrepreneurship; SMEs will increasingly operate globally through online networks; and technology will enable new opportunities for flexible and mobile work.
The document discusses the growing demand for authenticity from customers and employees. In today's business world, being authentic and human wins over being rational and faceless. Companies that maintain a personal, human relationship with customers through openly discussing challenges and criticisms are more successful. The document recommends that organizations embrace their authentic, human nature through the three phases of awareness, acceptance, and action. This includes conducting authenticity audits, promoting understanding of different styles and generations, and accepting responsibility for issues rather than ignoring them. Embracing authenticity leads to greater employee engagement, trust, and better business outcomes.
The Next Modern Commerce Disruption: A Blueprint to Win in the Age of Persona...Brian Solis
Beyond driving for revenues, modern businesses must consider the human quotient in all they do. This means
a human-centered engagement infrastructure that
builds relationships with customers digitally through meaningful value, connections, and communications. Smart technology engagement platforms combined with customer-first mindsets can re-imagine customer journeys not only to compete for the future, but also relevance
in every moment that matters to customers. That’s the important aspect about the human quotient—it plugs brands into the exact moments that matter to custom- ers. Highly personal touch points are instrumental in guiding the next steps of customers closer to, or further away from, a brand now and forever. These meaningful moments require modern forms of engagement that prioritize one-to-one personalization, context consider- ation, cross-channel communication, and right time/right place/right message delivery at scale. Just because your brand is winning today doesn’t mean that future shock isn’t on the horizon. Plan for it. The clock is ticking.

This generational shift allows for more efficient decisions through access to up-to-date information and pricing that adjusts based on current conditions.

Advanced Storytelling Concepts for MarketersEd Shimp
Every marketer knows you’re supposed to tell a story, but do you know how to tell a story? Do you know why you’re supposed to tell a story? Do you even truly know what a story is? While many marketing presentations emphasize the value of mythic storytelling, the nuts and bolts of actually constructing a story are never explored.
The goal of marketing may be to achieve specific KPIs that drive sales, which is very objective, but the top of the marketing funnel requires a softer approach. In our data-driven results-oriented fast-paced world, marketers must quantify results, but those results will never be achieved unless prospects are first approached with humanity.
There is a common misunderstanding that the so-called “soft skills” of marketing such as language and art are unmeasurable and subjective, but while the objective measures of market research are merely 100 years old, the rules of aesthetics have been perfected over the last 2,500 years.
Great story construction is a skill that requires significant knowledge and practice. This presentation will be a review of the ancient art of story construction.
We will discuss:
• Rhetoric – The art of effective communication
• The Socratic Method – You cannot teach, but you can persuade people to learn
• Plato’s Cave – You sell products, but you market ideas
• Aristotle’s Six Dramatic Elements – The secret recipe for marketing stories
This is for senior marketers who are tasked with creating effective narratives or guiding others in the process. By the end of the session, attendees will have gained the knowledge needed to work storytelling into all phases of the buyer’s journey.
The advent of AI offers marketers unprecedented opportunities to craft personalized and engaging customer experiences, evolving customer engagements from one-sided conversations to interactive dialogues. By leveraging AI, companies can now engage in meaningful dialogues with customers, gaining deep insights into their preferences and delivering customized solutions.

She'll cover a range of AI tools, including chatbots, voice assistants, predictive analytics, and conversational marketing, demonstrating how these technologies can be woven into marketing strategies to foster personalized customer connections.
Participants will learn about the advantages and hurdles of integrating AI in marketing initiatives, along with actionable advice on starting this transformation. They will understand how AI can automate mundane tasks, refine customer data analysis, and offer personalized experiences on a large scale.
Attendees will come away with an understanding of AI's potential to redefine marketing, equipped with the knowledge and tactics to leverage AI in staying competitive. The talk aims to motivate professionals to adopt AI in enhancing their CX, driving greater customer engagement, loyalty, and business success.

of the people to achieve the objectives of an organization Management is a universal process in all organized, social and economic activities. Wherever

resources –material, labour, capital etc. are entrusted to the organizing skill, administrative ability

Breaking Silos To Break Bank: Shattering The Divide Between Search And SocialNavah Hopkins
At Mozcon 2024 I shared this deck on bridging the divide between search and social. We began by acknowledging that search-first marketers are used to different rules of engagement than social marketers. We also looked at how both channels treat creative, audiences, bidding/budgeting, and AI. We finished by going through how they can win together including UTM audits, harvesting comments from both to inform creative, and allowing for non-login forums to be part of your marketing strategy.
I themed this deck using Baldur's Gate 3 characters: Gale as Search and Astarion as Social

• SEOs now use AI to optimize content.
• Google now uses AI to generate answers.
• Users are skipping search completely. They can now use AI to get answers. So AI has changed everything …or maybe not. Our audience hasn’t changed. Their information needs haven’t changed. Their perception of quality hasn’t changed. In reality, the most important things haven’t changed at all. In this session, you’ll learn the impact of AI. And you’ll learn ways that AI can make us better at the classic challenges: getting discovered, connecting through content and staying top of mind with the people who matter most. We’ll use timely tools to rebuild timeless foundations. We’ll do better basics, but with the most advanced techniques. Andy will share a set of frameworks, prompts and techniques for better digital basics, using the latest tools of today.
