Consensus Framework
Transform your business rapidly and easily with a proven framework for change.
To maximise profits, retailers must put customers at the heart of their business
We recognise that your retail customer base is changing and that you need to adapt to the requirements of two rising generations to protect your revenues. Millennials and Generation Z are savvier, smarter shoppers demanding a truly seamless, personalised omni-channel retail experience that is consistent across all channels. As a result, you’re under pressure to deliver personalised and mobile-first customer encounters.
Transforming your retail enterprise
Shifting customer expectations are fuelling a retail digital revolution, pushing you to evolve your trading practices to embrace new operating models. To thrive, you must move beyond traditional ways of retail operating towards direct-to-consumer and anything-as-a-service models.
One comprehensive retail platform
An overcrowded marketplace is stimulating the rise of anywhere-commerce, driving your need to first diversify your points of sale with social, web, mobile and personal assistants, and then to integrate them into one retail purchasing platform. It’s imperative that you devise and implement new ways of operating and leverage new and emerging technology to maximise your market position.
