On Demand

Retailers have collected enormous amounts of transactional data for a long time. Today’s digitally enabled shoppers not only investigate products in-store, they also extend their research into the digital domain. This non-transactional data created during consumers’ digital experiences define “big data” in retail.  

According to recent research by Penton’s retail and restaurant groups, companies are using data gleaned from consumers’ digital activities to better understand consumer preferences before they see it in sales. This allows companies to respond quickly to shifts in demand, pricing, promotions and assortments by influencing customer choices with targeted and timely value offers.

However, most retailers still have a lot of questions about how to gather and utilize their data in order to leverage this powerful set of technologies.

In this webinar we will discuss:

  • A primer on how big data is best used in retail
  • Recent data on how your peers are using big data
  • What you need to know to refine or jumpstart your big data efforts
  • How to simplify the management of this data
  • Stories of how other retailers have significantly enhanced their businesses with data analytics
