Kevin Moore has built up his concept of the Retail Trifecta through years of flying, driving, walking and riding to see and experience thousands of stores around the world each year. As the CEO, and now Chairman, of the Australian New Zealand division of one of the world's leading Shopper Marketing agencies, Kevin made these journeys to keep across shopper trends on behalf of his large corporate retail-focused clients. Kevin invites you to share in his journey into "the world in stores" from the comfort of your PC, tablet or smartphone. It won't be so good for your air-miles but it will be far quicker, easier and cheaper!
So, what is this concept of "The Retail Trifecta"? It's three inter-linked steps in the retail marketing mix that allow you to create a great shopping experience that lets shoppers linger longer, spend more money in-store and tell their friends about their great experience.
The major point is that if you only get one or two of these steps right, you're missing out big time. You may have an amazing looking store but if the associates are rude or unhelpful, the shopper experience will be poor and they're unlikely to return. Alternatively, you may have a great looking store and fantastically helpful store associates but if it takes ages for the retail systems to process payment, then the overall shopper experience will again be diminished. It's only when you get all three elements right - a great store format, knowledgeable and passionate associates who live your brand, and great technology that makes the shopping process seamless - that you will truly delight your shoppers and see a multiplier effect that is likely to boost both revenue and profits.
Understand the thinking behind appetizing store designs, from the humble convenience store to the most expensive global luxury brand, and everything in between. Light, color, smell and theatre all combine to attract and retain shoppers' attention.
Understand how people who work in stores always make the greatest difference to the shopper's experience. Well trained, knowledgeable and passionate people are the key, and here we look at how to achieve that.
There is no point investing in beautiful stores, well trained associates and then leaving shoppers standing at the checkout. Here we look at how we harness all forms of retail technology to make the shopping experience easy when it comes time to pay.
Having looked at the 3 steps in the Retail Trifecta we now look at each part that goes into building the Retail Trifecta in detail.
It's more than just buying and putting your wares on the shelf or hangers. It's about using your passion and knowledge to find amazing things, then displaying them beautifully to delight shoppers.

Now you've learnt about the shopper experience in the physical retail world, join us on a new course to discover how to master the shopper experience to grow your online business. Since originally producing this course, Kevin has been immersed in the world of online retail and has translated ways to bring the best of physical retail into the online world in order to provide a more compelling shopper experience.
