New Whitepaper: Succeeding in the Convenience Economy

Shopping has changed tremendously over the past decade. Shopping used to be a destination, a place where people went with the mindset of buying a specific item, in a specific store. Now with the rise of new forms of commerce, such as eCommerce, marketplaces, and social commerce, the shopping experience has become frictionless. It is now an “always-on” experience in which customers are constantly open to buying products. And this has provided them with a new mindset when it comes to shopping.

Today’s customers prioritize a convenient online shopping experience. They want retail services to fit their busy lifestyles and want to purchase products how, when, and where they want them.
