• Empowered sales associates offer any available
business inventory;

The Physical Stores
FROM

6. Retailer & Customer Relationship
• From one single experience for all customers to
personalized experiences for different customers !
• Big Data & Analytics as an enabler for customer
differenciation !
• “One size fits all” strategy does not work anymore !
7. Product Delivery to Consumer
The customer is not worried about sales channels ....He Just wants to
shop ....
• Physical Stores, Warehouses
• Pick Up points (Lockers, Gas Station, Tube)
• Home
The customer experience may begin and end anywhere…
This new demand of omni-customers requires a strong back office
integration involving the whole value chain.
.... and receive!

is offering multichannel
access, there is often a
“silo” mentality—online

are treated separately,
and are often managed by
different people and
departments that do not
fully cooperate.”*
