Editor's Notes

  1. Self-service retailers serve customers who are willing to perform their own locate-compare-select process to save money. They include: Wal-Mart and Supermarkets.Limited service retailers provide more sales assistance because they carry more shopping goods about which customers need more information. Examples include Sears and JC Penney.Full-service retailers assist customers in every phase of the shopping process, resulting in higher costs that are passed on to the customer as higher prices. Includes department stores and specialty stores
  2. Note to InstructorDiscussion QuestionWhat are examples of these types of stores?It might be difficult, depending on their geographic region, to find examples of superstores. Ask them where they would rather shop for a computer, a department store like Wal-Mart or a category killer like Best Buy? Why?
  3. Note to InstructorDiscount stores sell standard merchandise at lower prices by accepting lower margins and selling higher volume.Independent off-price retailers either are owned and run by entrepreneurs or are divisions of larger retail corporations.Off-price retailers buy at less-than-regular wholesale prices and charge customers less than retail.Factory outlets are producer-operated stores. The link on this slide is to a Premium Factory Outlet mall. Students are probably familiar with these types of shopping locations.Warehouse clubs are large warehouse-like facilities with few frills and offer ultra-low prices.
  4. Note to InstructorThis link is to the homepage for Ace Hardware. Students are likely to be familiar with the brand but not know that many stores are individually owned and operated (although they might know this phrase). You can view the site for information specific to owners.
  5. Note to InstructorThis is a good time to visit the Web site for Trader Joe’s. Ask the students who they target and how they position their business. You can also ask students how this is different than Whole Foods which is discussed in the text.
  6. Note to InstructorProduct assortment should differentiate the retailer while matching target shoppers’ expectations. Offers merchandise that no other competitor carries:Private or national brandsMerchandising eventsHighly targeted product assortmentServices mix should also serve to differentiate the retailer from the competition with customer support.Store atmosphere is the physical layout that makes moving around the store hard or easy.
  7. Note to InstructorDiscussion QuestionWhy would a retailer engage in high-low pricing?In most cases it is to increase store traffic, clear out unsold merchandise, create a low price image, or attract customers who will buy other goods at full price.
  8. Note to InstructorAsk students for examples of retailers that advertise heavily. They might even be able to mention a local retailer whose ads they seem to constantly see on television. Local furniture stores and car dealers invest heavily on local television.
  9. Note to InstructorCentral business districts are declining. Students might even be able to cite examples in their home town where shopping centers are being built but central business districts are failing to thrive. Shopping centers can be:Regional shopping centersCommunity shopping centersNeighborhood shopping centersPower centerLifestyle centers
  10. Note to InstructorDiscussion QuestionWhat percent of your purchases are online? Why is it low for some types of products?It might be surprising to see that for certain categories it is very high but for others it remains low. You can ask why they differ by category. It might include shipping costs, need to try the product, size, impulse purchase, etc.
