This interactive mobile merchandising platform allowed Macy’s to track the consumer
movement throughout the store, greeting them with different offers, discount coupons
and product recommendations depending on the floor of department the customer is
on.
Proximity marketing & location based mobile engagement has been talked
about as one of the most breakthrough technologies for brick and mortar
retailers looking to innovate and bridge the gap between the digital world
today’s consumers are so connected with and the physical shopping
experience.

18. “The essence of the Purple Cow —
the reason it would shine among a
crowd of perfectly competent,
even undeniably excellent cows —
is that it would be remarkable.
Something remarkable is worth
talking about, worth paying
attention to. Boring stuff quickly
becomes invisible.”
19. Remarkable marketing is the art of building
things worth noticing right into your product or
service. Not just slapping on the marketing
function as a last-minute add-on, but also
understanding from the outset that if your
offering itself isn't remarkable, then it's invisible
— no matter how much you spend on well-
crafted advertising.

Editor's Notes
Tesco Homeplus, the South Korean operation of the U.K.-based grocer Tesco, created a virtual store in subways, where images of food were projected on walls and laid out like actual stores. Each item had a quick response (QR) code so commuters could use their smartphones to scan an item and have it delivered right as they got home.
