6. TO SEE DATA IN ACTION, LET’S
PAY A VISIT TO SMITH’S MALL.

SMITH’S MALL
7. WHEN SMITH’S MALL OPENED IN
THE MID 1980S, IT WAS A STATE
OF THE ART SHOPPING VENUE.

SMITH’S MALL
8. IN THE 80’S SMITH’S HAD IT ALL:
The best stores The best restaurants
(well, two)
The best parking
in town
It even had fountains running down Midsummer Boulevard.

SHOPPING VENUE
FOR MILES
AROUND.

shopping venues arrived and
started taking business away.
Then online shopping came
into town.

BEGAN TO LOSE
IT’S ALLURE.

13. IT WAS NO GREAT SURPRISE WHEN
SMITH’S MALL OWNERS STARTED
DRAWING UP PLANS TO SELL THE
SITE FOR REDEVELOPMENT.
But first, a last attempt to
salvage the situation was
put in place.
Retail property consultant,
John Taylor was drafted in. FOR
SALE?

14. With a strong background in
analytics, Taylor was alarmed
to find a management team
with very little in the way of
business intelligence.
To address the situation, he
brought in new software to
capture data from around
the site.

20. Three months later the picture is much clearer.
THE CURRENT VIEW
CLEAR VIEW - USING DASHBOARDS TO SHED LIGHT ON YOUR RETAIL SPACE
Real-time data around the tenants
- which sector they work in and the
details of the rent and sales for each
business - has changed the game.
Taylor can now see which businesses
achieve the best revenue, draw the
biggest crowds, and pay the most rent.
21. THE CURRENT VIEW
CLEAR VIEW - USING DASHBOARDS TO SHED LIGHT ON YOUR RETAIL SPACE
He can see how many customers are
visiting each unit and how much per
head they are spending.
From industry research, he can also
assess whether these figures are
comparable with other shopping
venues in the same market space.
22. THE CURRENT VIEW
CLEAR VIEW - USING DASHBOARDS TO SHED LIGHT ON YOUR RETAIL SPACE
Footfall rates across the venue
indicate that Smith’s Mall is attracting
30% less traffic than would be
expected for its location, population
density, and demographic makeup.
30%LESS
23. THE CURRENT VIEW
CLEAR VIEW - USING DASHBOARDS TO SHED LIGHT ON YOUR RETAIL SPACE
The data indicates existing anchor
tenants are underperforming and
not driving footfall to the venue.
The main impact for Taylor and
his team is that tenants are not
renewing their leases.

24. THE MESSAGE IS CLEAR:
CLEAR VIEW - USING DASHBOARDS TO SHED LIGHT ON YOUR RETAIL SPACE
Taylor needs more customers through the door.
SMITH’S MALL

AS A QUICK FIX HE
INTRODUCES POP-UP
STANDS FOR LOCALLY
BASED COFFEE AND
STREET FOOD VENDORS.
THIS PROVES TO BE A
REAL HIT.
26. CLEAR VIEW - USING DASHBOARDS TO SHED LIGHT ON YOUR RETAIL SPACE
HE ALSO SETS IN MOTION A
PROJECT TO CLEAN, RE-DECORATE
AND REDESIGN THE VENUE.
Longer term he believes more branded food and beverage
outlets will be the key to bringing customers to Smith’s,
encouraging them to stay longer (and spend more).
SMITH’S MALL
27. After a series of consultations with
tenants he agrees a rolling schedule
of events, sales and one-off
promotions. As a result, customers
now look forward to something new
on offer at Smith’s each week.
Importantly, the Smith’s
Mall team have the analytics
to measure ROI on every
initiative that is put in place.

28. LAST BUT NOT LEAST,
THERE IS THE BRAND...
CLEAR VIEW - USING DASHBOARDS TO SHED LIGHT ON YOUR RETAIL SPACE
Smith’s Mall took its name from
family tradition. Fine in 1986,
perhaps, but not in 2016.
Through a competition among local
schoolchildren and online customer
feedback forms, Taylor develops a
bright new logo and a new name.
It’s partly inspired by the data
analysis that was the foundation
for Smith’s rebrand:
Future

THE BRIGHT FUTURE
SHOPPING EXPERIENCE.
John Taylor is now CEO of Bright Future. Currently he’s in
discussions with new investors and the local authority to expand
the venue into a leisure, outlet and shopping destination.
Future
30. CLEAR VIEW - USING DASHBOARDS TO SHED LIGHT ON YOUR RETAIL SPACE
HIS VISION IS FOR BRIGHT FUTURE
TO OUTSHINE EVERY COMPETING
VENUE WITHIN 100 MILES.
WE ARE SURE HE’LL DO WELL.
Future
31. FOURS LESSONS FOR YOUR
OWN BRIGHT FUTURE:
1. Shopping venues are constantly changing. The fact that they were
once successful is no indication they will thrive in the future.
2. Detailed measurement and analysis of customer and tenant
behavior is vital to understanding which venues are performing
well and which are underachieving.
3. Data analytics - measuring areas such as footfall, sales versus
rent, sales versus target, tenant sales versus target - will give
you an evidence base for future improvement.
4. Continuous monitoring on a weekly, monthly, quarterly and
annual basis leads to better awareness of changing patterns of
customer behaviour and preference.
