Undisputed reports tell us that record numbers of buyers are becoming "multichannel." Today's shoppers are looking at multiple sources of information prior to making a purchase. They will research a product online, call a cataloger, visit a store, and then decide which source will provide them the best value. While there are still customers who are adhering to their one preferred purchase channel, that group is dwindling.
Multichannel retailing by definition is providing your customers with a point of purchase from which to acquire your products, no matter what their channel preference may be. Multichannel marketing is similar in that you are trying now to influence a customer's shopping behavior, no matter what media they are tuned in to. A simple definition...a highly complex task.
Customer's needs and expectations are ever changing, and advancements in comparison shopping tools have allowed them to expand their shopping excursions to an infinite number of suppliers. Given the complicated commerce landscape and associated competitive threats, companies need to understand their customers and fine tune offerings to meet their needs.
