Why the Multichannel Wave is Worth Riding
Everyone is well-aware of the buzz about multi-channel marketing – it’s a catchphrase that’s been making the circuit in small business circles. But do we really know what it means, and more importantly, why it matters?
Brace yourself for some surprise! A recent Harvard Business Review study revealed some impressive facts. It turns out that customers who adventurously surf through multiple channels spend an average of 4% more in-store and a whopping 10% more online, compared to those who stick with their safety buoy- single-channel. Every additional channel a customer uses, they unswervingly spend more, making them the Mavericks of retail surfing.
