  • The fall of bricks and clicks, the rise of ‘showrooming’

In a 4G-enabled world stores are increasingly being used as showrooms – leading to mobile commerce dramatically overtaking bricks-and-mortar retail. The fact that three in four shoppers are researching products on their mobile device while in store should not be seen as a threat. Instead this is a great opportunity to seize market share from competitors.

It’s up to you to embrace this trend, not underestimate the power of mobile in physical stores and ensure shoppers are purchasing from you.
