“Retailers need to predict shoppers’ needs, reduce decision-making, enable highly personal experiences, and meet them where they are. But how we get there and what that could look like is not up to the retailer, it’s up to customers to define the experiences we deliver.” Check out Suresh Kumar’s thoughts on understanding and meeting the customer “why”: https://lnkd.in/gCCDzZcX

Customers are moving from a ‘do it with me’ to a ‘do it for me’ mindset. They expect retailers to anticipate their needs, reduce decision-making, and deliver exactly when they need it. To achieve this, everything must be interconnected and personalized.

How are U.S. shoppers’ expectations evolving? Immediate accessibility and custom “do it for me” experiences will become the norm: They want retailers to anticipate their needs, reduce decision-making and deliver at exactly the right moment. As Suresh Kumar notes in his interview with Jason Del Rey for Fortune, the way we discover, buy, and receive products is set to dramatically change in the next 5-10 years to meet these expectations. Everything great about eCommerce – no lines, easy search and find, personalized recommendations – must be available in the store. And everything great about the store – try on, customer service, instant purchase – needs to be available from home.

The retail landscape has undergone numerous changes over the past decade. Adaptability, immediate accessibility and custom “do it for me” experiences will no longer be longer luxuries – they are absolute necessities. Today Walmart released its inaugural State of Adaptive Retail Report with Morning Consult, revealing four emerging trends shaping the future of the retail industry. Among the discoveries: 💡 Shoppers want retailers to handle the thinking while they focus on buying: 38% of shoppers say they want a virtual personal shopper. 💡 Shopping now blends seamlessly with daily life: Nearly 80% of shoppers made online purchases while multitasking in the past six months. 💡 Consumers crave a mix of online convenience and in-store tangibility: Nearly half prefer virtual try-ons over traditional dressing rooms and say they’d buy more clothes if a great virtual try-on experience were available. Download the report for a detailed look at the state of Adaptive Retail, its future direction and how shoppers are shaping these new retail experiences: https://lnkd.in/euYTWDiz #RetailInnovation #Walmart
