As the popularity of omnichannel shopping has increased in recent years, retailers are able to capture data about billions of customer interactions and transactions from multiple touchpoints. Using this information and external data available from third parties like Datalogix, Compete, Nielsen, Acxiom, etc., retailers can zero in on what their customers want and quickly respond to their needs to increase sales and customer satisfaction. Real-time pricing, personalization and using loyalty data are all effective strategies that harness the power of big data to encourage consumers to complete their purchase in-store rather than buying from a competitor via a smartphone or going home to buy online.
