personalization has at least some impact on the
purchasing decision (Infosys)

everything: 78% are ok with sharing their email address;
64% zip code; 38% birth date and 38% postal address.

11. Today’s retail pressures
Give me what I want, when I
want it, how I want it.
And it better be at a good
price.
I’ll engage with you in a

I know I can win.
Profits, profits, profits!

12. The experts weigh in
The key is segmenting to closely target the demographics making up your future shopper base. By
looking at segments on a micro level, you can get to know shoppers on a store-by-store basis and figure
out which features you want to prioritize in which locations. Get to know who is in your store aisles and
what they want today to shape how you personalize their experiences in the future.
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP “Front of the Line” report.
Retailers now recognize that price and/or product are not enough to differentiate their brand, they need to
focus on the customer experience to win.”
RSR, Retail Marketing 2013: Organizational Drift report.
[Retailers] are viewing their shoppers’ behaviors broadly: They look at things like spending and
purchasing habits, basket composition, purchase timing and frequency, wallet share, marketing
effectiveness, and branding impact. Envision your future shoppers by understanding the most minute
changes in areas like these, and use that knowledge to model and anticipate future behaviors.
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP 2014 report.

truly personalized offering; and more than 60% would
increase their purchases if they were offered a
personalized subscription program.
