Managing content effectively
Description: As Internet retailing has evolved, the amount of content retailers serve up on their web sites has exploded. Early versions of retail sites with static text and images have become complex, highly interactive displays built on various page elements, streaming media, coding, digital assets and more. As a web site grows, managing it efficiently and cost-effectively becomes an increasing challenge for retailers and a driver of the growing marketplace for content management solutions. Web site operators spent an estimated $8 billion on content management software and services last year in an effort to streamline workflow, better leverage assets and deliver more site functionality.
Dealing with returns
Description: Returns have been regarded by online retailers as an unwanted headache, and all too frequently, an expensive one. Gartner Inc.’s Gartner G2 Retail Services Group estimates that returns are costing retailers anywhere from 0.2% to as much as 25% of sales. Forrester Research has estimated that next year, retailers will spend $9 billion to process some $11.5 billion in returned goods purchased online.
The growing importance of CRM
Description: What is customer relationship management? There are about as many answers as there are retailers. CRM encompasses marketing, customer service, loyalty programs, ongoing communications with customers, cross-channel recognition of customers—and on and on. In short, customer relationship management covers all the ways and times that a retailer interacts with a customer. “CRM is a business strategy to build loyalty and sales with one’s best customers,” says Janet Murphy, president of Morristown, N.J.-based consultants Ogden Associates Inc., which conducted a survey with researchers/consultants Gartner Inc. of retailers’ CRM initiatives for the National Retail Federation. “It’s very important in retailing today.”
Fulfillment’s key role in e-retailing
Description: Fulfillment has come a long way since the 1990s when newly online retailers learned—some the hard way—the importance of fulfillment. First there was the bad press about late and missed deliveries for holiday shopping 1999. Then in 2000, the Federal Trade Commission levied high-profile fines totaling
E-Commerce Software
Description: Electronic commerce software has gone far beyond its early utility of selling goods directly to web users. More than just sell-side commerce software, it has evolved into a broader technology category encompassing such areas as on-line catalogs, electronic marketing, customer relationship management, Internet trading exchanges and supply chain systems.
Kiosks extend retailers’ reach
Description: The idea that web-enabled kiosks can tie multiple shopping channels together is finally coming to fruition. After several years of ramp-up, the applications for store kiosks are now in tune with retail strategy. Some retailers are using kiosks to expand their inventory to help store shoppers find what they’re looking for, while others are using them to add services to their retail environment, yet others are using them to extend their geographical reach and some are using them for workforce management.
Stocking the shelves
Description: A measure of the web’s impact on retailing has been the amount of online shopping taking place. And while that is certainly one way to look at the web, another measure of the pervasiveness of the web in the retail industry is to look at the opposite end of the process—the sourcing of merchandise. In that part of the industry, the web is having far greater impact than it has on the selling of goods.
The State of the Industry: The Next Evolution
Description: Throughout e-retailing’s existence, one of the leading distractions has been the industry’s blatant disregard for profitability. During the industry’s boom period, retailers, primarily those of the pure-play variety (but some multi-channel retailers also participated) spent money like it was growing on trees. Long term, this behavior did little to propel the industry forward, while raising red flags about e-retailing’s long-term potential as a viable distribution channel.
Helping searchers
Description: Identifying consumers at the moment they are most receptive to a product is one of the ways in which the Internet has changed shopping patterns. Unlike in a bricks-and-mortar store where a sales associate often must employ numerous skills to determine first if a customer is actually looking for something or just browsing then exactly what the customer wants, the Internet can tell a retailer precisely which product the customer is considering.
New payment options
Description: There’s no doubt that electronic checks have not caught on for payment of retail goods on the web. Only 0.3%—that’s 3 out of every 1,000 orders—of Internet-based retail purchases are paid by check—either electronic or by check mailed post-order, reports BizRate.com Inc.
Our 2003 Buyers Guide: Market Barometer
Description: The 2003 Internet Retailer Buyers Guide—the fourth edition of this annual e-retailing shopping guide—is by far the most robust we have produced. It sets new records in the number of vendors listed (515), the number of distinct product and service categories (57) included and the number of paid listings (110). Indeed, expressed in total dollars, paid listings in this year’s guide are up a stunning 39% from last year. Not bad for a recession economy.
E-Mail Marketing
Description: E-mail marketing is in full force as retailers look to further segment their target audiences. Retailers are fine-tuning how they use this communication tool to open dialog with customers, from using specific subject lines and customer names to attract attention to utilizing purchase history to determine which offers to present to different customers.
