The Re-Engineering of Commerce: Today’s Path to Success Demands New Strategies
Date & Time: Tuesday, March 28 2017, 1:45pm to 2:45pm
Retail isn’t dead and eCommerce isn’t over. But as commerce continues to evolve, critical work streams are slipping through the cracks at the margins of traditional disciplines like shopper insights, shopper marketing, category management, sales, eCommerce and brand marketing.
As brands become retailers, retailers become technology companies and shoppers are “never not shopping,” the path to success demands new strategies, skillsets, capabilities and tactics.
Attendees to this session will learn:
- How leading brands and retailers are re-engineering the demand and supply chains in harmony to thrive amid digital disruption.
- The teams, tools and processes driving the re-engineering of commerce – and how traditional roles and responsibilities are impacted.
- Playbooks for accelerating eCommerce performance now.
