Digital tools are moving offline thanks to mobile devices, creating a generation of connected consumers in a hyperlinked world. People are using their phones to keep shopping lists, get information, solicit opinions and much more—all while cruising the aisles of brick and mortar stores. In this new reality, bits and bricks are no longer separate and "online" is everywhere.
As today’s consumer-driven technology continues to evolve, the at-retail environment is in the best position to utilize these new tools. Through mobile, retailers can engage shoppers on the spot, enhance their experiences and ultimately influence their decisions right at the point of purchase. Yet, many companies are overwhelmed with the rate of technology change and challenged to find ways to adopt technology into the right state.
At the POPAI Breakthrough Thinking Conference "Marketing at Retail Technology and Shopper Behavior: Reaching Retail Consumers with New Strategies" last Thursday (http://popai.com/tech), Allison Mooney and Caleb Kramer of MobileBehavior, a Tribal DDB Company, shared the latest insights on how consumers are using mobile devices while shopping and how marketers can embrace these behaviors to enhance the in-store experience.

An increasing number of consumers today are treating the physical store like a “showroom”: trying out new products and proceeding to buy the product online at a lower price.
In this session, iQmetrix will discuss interactive retail technology and how improving the in-store experience can help to convert shoppers, initially bent on showrooming, into buyers. They will also discuss how retailers can develop an “omnichannel” experience by selling to consumers on all channels (online, mobile and in-store) simultaneously.
Ethan Goodman, VP, Digital Practice at The Mars Agency shares an overview of four emerging digital shopper marketing trends that we should all know about.

Summer is speeding by and before you know it, "back to school", Thanksgiving and Christmas will be on all marketers' minds. Don't find yourself at the end of December asking why you've let another year go by watching your competitors brag about their mobile enabled campaigns.
Don't read about how mobile marketing was executed for this year's Holiday Season, be part of it.

At every touchpoint, physical or digital, your customer is forming a single opinion on the value of their experience. As customers don't live in channels, global retailers have started moving beyond Omni-Channel strategies that, in many cases, focused on the channels as an end point rather than providing a true seamless experience.
During his Australian Retail Tour, Josh Sigel (former CIO of Natural Markets Food Group) shared how he created ‘Multiplex Retailing’ to improve customer value and sales by revolutionising the way customers buy groceries and cooked meals.
Key Takeaways:
-Point of Sale is going away and will become a value added Point of Experience
-Channel based solutions will be integrated to create Multiplex brand experiences
-Embrace Innovation or Face Elimination – Innovation within retail will not be a choice, it will be a necessity in order to survive
With today's mobile marketing technology, reaching your broad base of customers is easier than ever. However, to make your message stick you have to go deeper. In this webinar, we reinforce the importance of one-to-one engagement when it comes to today’s connected consumer—after all, 54% would consider ending their loyalty programs if they weren’t given tailor-made, relevant content and offers—but we will also provide you with the tools you need to build mobile marketing strategy with the individual consumer in mind. We’ll review the steps that will take you from a one-size-fits-all broadcast approach to a finely tuned, personalized engagement methodology that places you in your customer's pocket.

2. WHAT WE WANTED TO LEARN
Every day, people search for things nearby
by conducting local searches. These are
searches aimed at finding things near where
they happen to be. This may include finding
directions to a local store/business, checking
local store hours, or searching for local
stores that have a product in stock.
We wanted to understand this local search
behavior. Is it prominent? What information
do consumers search for when they want to
find things nearby? And, what potential does
it hold for advertisers?
To answer these questions, Google
commissioned two custom research
studies to look at local search behavior
across devices. This deck highlights the
research findings.
