As armas que o retalho físico pode usar

Nestes tempos em que o retalho online avança de forma imperial, faz cada vez mais sentido pensar na batota, para quem quer ter um futuro no retalho físico:
"the importance of customer experience in retail. In IMS Retail University we make the case very bluntly: "Differentiate or die." If it only comes down to selling at lowest price, game over. Online and the largest retailers win the price battle, and Amazon wows consumers with both service and price. So, how do you create and sustain experience consumers will value? Retailers would do well to borrow from the playbook of Disney who understands a high quality experience is all about "theater" … and requires a blend of Stage + Actors + Script.
...
If retail is only about selling commodities at a price, then no … retail probably does not have to become theater.
...
Today's consumers can typically find a better deal online. To survive and thrive, retail stores must create some "theater" in order to create experiences where consumers are entertained, learn something new, or find some value beyond purchasing products at lowest price.
...
Retail store staff: It is the Actors who create differentiation and value
...
it is the actors who are absolutely critical in creating the experience and the services that consumers will pay a premium for.
...
the best theater happens when staging is built for the script, and the actors are chosen for their talent to play specific roles to bring the story to life."
BTW, ao ouvir "Buyology" lembrei-me logo do futuro do retalho físico e da batota, ao pensar nas armas que o retalho físico pode usar para estimular a experiência sensorial da compra: luz, toque, cheiro; som, ... só que o retalho físico normalmente prepara a experiência de compra como o Aranha relata num comentário a este postal.
"the problem with selling experience is that people get used to it. And there is always somewhere newer to go." (fonte)
