Does availability drives sales?

Whether you have single or multiple channels, the ability to monitor sales, plan and buy accurately then allocate effectively to each touch point can help to gain more of your customers' spending while ensuring stock efficiency.

Merchandise Planning is becoming increasingly more complex and important for profitable trading with multiple channels and consumer driven trends.

What level of service do your customers expect?

Short queues and swift transactions are always popular but  how can you provide this level of efficiency while still giving the important individual service on a sale of personal items such as clothing or footwear? The ability to appropriately deploy skilled staff with mobile technology where customers need them most can ensure that 'trying on' converts to a sale.

Efficient handling of multi-channel sales is becoming increasingly important allowing customers to browse on-line and then 'click and collect' or return on-line purchases in store for refund.

How can loyalty be influenced?

Encouraging recession-weary shoppers not to hunt around for a bargain - or wait for the sales requires effort. The ability to easily capture personal information and nurture your customers with targeted incentives, and the responsiveness to support mid-season or even monthly launches using integrated system functionality can engender long-term loyalty and a more consistent purchase pattern..

Planning expansion?

How can you protect your brand through expansion into new channels or countries while accommodating local fashion tastes, sizes, languages, taxation and currencies? The flexibility to provide some autonomy to a diverse retail estate and franchise partners while retaining control at head office with real time reporting  can be key to expansion success.

How do you minimise loss?

In a sector plagued by varying levels of fraud, the ability to quickly identify and analyse irregular activities at the POS and automatically look up an original sales transaction from a central database when processing refunds deters theft and can be critical in protecting your margins.
