How different is the use of digital
channels during the shopping journey
in developing countries compared with
more mature markets?
Is there a clear segmentation of
shoppers based on their shopping
behavior and preferences across all
channels (for example, taking into
account different behavior for women,
tech-shy or older people)?
When are retailers and manufacturers
relevant to digital shoppers in their
all-channel experience, such as with
social media and smartphones – and
how does this differ depending on the
shopper segment?

The document discusses how retailers are working to enhance the customer experience in response to changing customer behaviors and expectations. A survey found that within five years, over 40% of retailers expect to provide personalized product details and coupons to customers based on location. Over 50% of transactions are expected to be completed via mobile. The primary drivers for retailers to invest in new technologies are improving customer service (51%) and keeping pace with competition (22%). The document argues that retailers must provide seamless omnichannel experiences to meet rising customer expectations of having information and options available both online and in physical stores.
Artificial intelligence (AI) was once considered the future but has now become a part of daily life. Automation has made processes easier, more agile, and faster. These are important factors that have led many industries, including packaging, to gravitate towards implementing pioneering AI systems.

Read the report to find out the role and use of digital channels (and devices), across the consumer purchasing journey today and in the future.
The document discusses how consumer purchasing habits are shifting from infrequent large shopping trips to more frequent smaller trips, and will continue shifting to automatic purchases through smart home devices with consumers opting out of purchases rather than opting in. It outlines 3 steps for FMCG companies to capitalize on this trend: 1) focus on e-commerce, 2) move to delivering full baskets through automatic purchases using the default effect, and 3) leverage voice assistants for conversational commerce. The opportunities include increased profits and customer stickiness, but risks include data security, customer preferences changing, and regulatory challenges.
This document outlines 9 key trends that will influence future consumers and retailers: 1) Advancements in mobile phones like augmented reality and holograms, 2) Increased transparency through online reviews and comparisons, 3) "Retail-tainment" through more engaging consumer experiences, 4) Integration of online and offline shopping, 5) Individual customization of products, 6) Support for local communities and suppliers, 7) Focus on ethics and environmental sustainability, 8) Growth of self-service technologies, 9) Applications of technologies like RFID, digital displays, and social media. Retailers must adapt to these trends by providing the best consumer experience both online and in-store.
Informes PwC - Encuesta Total Retail GlobalPwC España
El informe "Hacia un modelo de Total Retail", elaborado por PwC, analiza las expectativas y hábitos de consumo del comprador online, a partir de 15.000 entrevistas a compradores digitales de todo el mundo, y las implicaciones para las compañías del sector de distribución y consumo en los próximos años.
Informe de PwC sobre las expectativas y hábitos de consumo del comprador onlineMaría Bretón Gallego
The document discusses 8 customer expectations for retailers identified from a survey of 15,000 online shoppers. The first expectation is a compelling brand story that promises a distinctive experience. The survey found that consumers are consolidating their shopping to just a few favorite retailers. This presents an opportunity for retailers that can emotionally connect with consumers through a strong brand narrative. Retailers need to focus on cultivating their brand to provide a consistent experience across all channels.
Contextual Commerce: Best Practices for Winning with Customer Experience with...edynamic
This document provides an overview of contextual commerce and best practices. It discusses how contextual commerce focuses on optimizing the customer experience across channels by delivering personalized, relevant content and commerce opportunities based on the customer's context. The challenges of old ecommerce platforms are outlined, such as having separate systems for content, commerce, and customers that don't provide personalization or a unified experience. Best practices for contextual commerce highlighted include investing in a connected commerce platform, gathering detailed customer data, delivering varied and engaging content including user-generated content, providing seamless omni-channel experiences, and personalization. Case studies demonstrate how improving the customer experience through these practices can significantly increase sales and engagement.
The mobile revolution represents both a threat and opportunity for retailers. While customers increasingly use smartphones in stores to compare prices and make purchases online, mobile technologies also allow retailers to engage customers and improve the in-store experience. However, retailers face challenges in tracking changing customer preferences in real-time, competing with online retailers, and overcoming technology challenges around integrating disconnected in-store and online systems and gathering/analyzing customer data from multiple sources to determine personalized offers.
Is Omnichannel Dead? Evolving Tactics for Today's RetailSmartFocusWorld
This Slideshare asks 'what really is omnichannel?' Is it dead or is it more alive than ever?
It also explores 3 trends which are currently shaking up omnichannel and examples of evolving tactics within the field.
Omnichannel marketing will grow faster than any other segment as it blends technology, data/analytics/measurement/metrics and both traditional and digital marketing with a host of other variables. All of this can be integrated now with attribution and insight engines to deliver actionable insights to retailers and brand marketers. We believe that going forward driving down marketing costs while increasing performance will be the key to profitability for everyone. That's where our Omnichannel Marketing Project is focused.

understand the new language of consumers. We surveyed 16,000 consumers in the
Digital Shopper from Canada United States and nine European countries about their shopping experiences and their
relationships with business.
The research demonstrated that companies needn’t – and, in fact, shouldn’t – try to
be great at everything. Rather than striving for universal excellence, companies should
consider the five basic shopping attributes present in any commercial transaction – access,
experience, price, product and service – and select one on which to dominate and one on
which to differentiate themselves, while ensuring they are at par or meeting the market on
the remaining three.
This research was followed by our “Future Consumer” program, which involved more than
2,000 consumer interviews in four countries: France, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom
and the United States. The research explored the importance of topics such as health
and wellness, product traceability, environmental issues and the use of new/emerging
technologies, and how these issues may impact the way consumers buy, receive and use
products and services in the future.
Our new “Digital Shopper Relevancy” research, involving 16,000 consumers in 16 countries,
picks up where the earlier studies left off: by focusing on how, when and where shoppers
use a wide range of channels and devices – from smartphones and mobile apps to
websites and in-store kiosks.
The sum total of these consumer research programs: 10 years, 34,000 consumer
interviews, 18 countries studied – and countless insights into shopping behavior.
