With the continuous growth of competition in the CPG
industry, effective brand management has become even more important. With the
knowledge that retailer behaviour can impact your bottom line, the trend seems
to be that brands are attempting to take far more control when it comes to
their merchandise on the store floor. Managing your brand has never been more
important.
Don’t just take our word for it; check out this recent
article from Business Wire: http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20141104006475/en/Displaydata-Research-85-U.S.-Shoppers-Research-Online#.VI8OW-8tCM9.
Reporting on a Displaydata
consumer survey, the articles notes that, although 83% of consumers report that
most of their shopping takes place in bricks and mortar locations, they do
report several disconnects between the online and offline experience. These
include different prices being offered online versus in-store, issues with
stock and availability and poorly trained staff. These issues are contributing
to the competition felt by bricks and mortar locations on behalf of online
retailers.
Consumers tend to use various methods for information, and
according to the article, omni-channel marketing seems to be gaining ground.

Effective brand management means being aware of exactly what
is going on in-store. If customers are not happy, can’t find your product, or
are getting frustrated by poor service, they may just turn to the computer to
solve the problem.

managed correctly, all the time, and help you fix any problems if it isn’t!
