TRENDS IN
RETAILING
Retail Marketing

The essence of retail marketing is developing


merchandise and services that satisfy specific
needs of customers and supplying them at
prices that will yield profits.
   
Future of Retail in India :
Customers are also looking for convenience in
shopping. This would continue more strongly in
the next couple of years. In future the more dual
income families, the consumer’s ability to spend
will increase, but at the same time it is predicted
that the time available for shopping will go down,
in such scenario, the retailers will have to take
steps to develop shopping as an experience, though
the more successful retailers will be those that will
provide faster service.
The nature of retail Marketing:

In making retail marketing decisions,


retailers must consider the needs of the
customers.
Retail marketing decisions are driven by
what the customer need and want.
Retail marketing is all about satisfying the
customers
Retailer’s Responses To the changing customer:                                   

• Retailers that convey the appropriate level of


respect will experience an increase in customer
loyalty and sales.
Retailers must dig deep to learn who their
customers.
The old marketing concept will need to be
modified from “satisfying” customers to
“wowing” customers.
