Page 2: Merging the Digital and Physical Retail Environment · providing critical strategies for brick and mortar retailers to improve and increase conversion rates in-store. Store innovation

In the current competitive environment, retailers have to make strides toincorporate digital with the physical in their brick and mortar stores. Seamlessshopping is a non-negotiable for today’s consumer. What are you doing toprovide a more engaging in-store experience?

With the growth of e-commerce and web-only retailers, brick and mortar storeclosings are trending higher. Retailers that choose not to adapt to the newways consumers shop are placing their physical stores in jeopardy. Traditionally,the goal of a store was simple—to convert customers—but now it’s so muchmore. Showrooming has become a concept to embrace, not combat. How canretailers make the in-store experience as appealing as it is online? Whattechnology is necessary to enhance traffic, conversions and loyalty?

Future Stores 2014 is focused on the pain points of store operations, IT,marketing, merchandising, cross-channel and customer experience executives,providing critical strategies for brick and mortar retailers to improve and increaseconversion rates in-store.

Store innovation is a top priority for retailers in 2014 and beyond. Re-engagingcustomers will require a multi-channel, collaborative approach to merging thedigital and physical retail environment.

Hear from retailers on how understanding the consumer path to purchase canimpact what happens inside your brick and mortar from technology, shopperbehavior, sales, fulfillment, loyalty and so much more.

I hope to see you this June in Seattle!
