Retail Marketing

If you are running a retail business, whether bricks and mortar or online, then the customer holds the essential element if you want to achieve real success. The key is to know them, to focus on them with everything you do and say which will ultimately help your business to grow.

But how do you know what you should be focusing on to help improve your understanding of your customer? Bright Owl Marketing have helped retailers offering Food Products, Music and Staging Equipment, Kitchenware and even Fashion Labels and Stores to help fine tune your marketing systems and go the extra mile for the customer. Each time you must continually strive to deliver a little more than they expect, which will create a real win and make them loyal for a long time to come.

Strategy

Retailers use lots of different communication tools to grow awareness and considerations with future customers. But there is a need to find the right marketing mix in order to make a positive return on investment. This means you need to focus on the Four P’s, which are essential to Retail Marketing.

• Product: Your customers need to be able to buy a product that will satisfy their needs and desires, whether it be sporting equipment or a boutique clothing store.
• Price: Pricing must be consistent across the marketing mix and cover the cost of goods sold and any overheads. But there are lots of different pricing strategies that can be applied including the cheapest price, high/low pricing, competitive pricing and even psychological pricing.
• Place: You must provide somewhere for your customers to purchase your product, whether it be a physical retail location or an e-commerce website.
• Promotion: Once you have a product, ready to be sold at the right price, in a place where the customer can access it – you’ll then need to tell them about it. Effective promotions may include personal selling, advertising, sales promotion, direct marketing, and publicity. This is where we can really help you find the right advertising and communication strategy to help customers choose your retail brand over the competitions.
