What is Omnichannel Retail? Past. Present. Future.Mihai Dragan
Omnichannel retail allows traditional retailers to connect their existing channels such as brick and mortar or call centers to digital channels - online store, mobile app, social shopping channels and others.
This presentation focuses on how this came to be, what are the bottlenecks in implementing omnichannel retail and why should retailers switch to this new approach.
Probably the most compelling reasons to adapt to omnichannel retailing are today's customer demands. The customer wants 24/7 service and the same experience on all sales channels, whether it is the offline store, the mobile app or the brick and mortar outlet.
Criteo’s analysis of shopping data from Q4 2015 demonstrates that mobile leaders grew their share of transactions faster than average in a world where mobile devices are at the center of the connected consumer.
Top retailers see double the growth in mobile’s share of transactions, widening the gap with average retailers in the space.
Nearly four-in-ten consumers shop on multiple devices and complete those purchases on a mobile device almost a third of the time.
Dedicated shopping apps dwarf the mobile web at all points on the path to purchase, from browsing products to the sale itself.
Japan, UK and South Korea continue to lead the globe in mobile transactions, and smartphones are driving that growth.

3) We expect brick-and-mortar to remain the dominant store format for US apparel and footwear retail in the near future.
4) As retailers have shifted their budgets to digital advertising, the influence of all major media channels has decreased in the past five years, except for social media and mobile video.
5) Among millennials, the influence of social media on apparel purchases is on par with traditional media like TV and magazines.
