There are so many articles, blogs, think pieces at the moment regarding the current state of our high streets and town centres. Who should you be listening to? In our previous blogs we have conveyed the factors affecting our places and have from our direct experience of town centre regeneration project delivery talked at length regarding the collaboration required between local authorities, businesses and consumers. We have first hand experience of this actually working and the tools required to successfully create a joined up, digitally connected town. In our next blog @jowynncarter will take you through the steps to achieve this goal. . . . . #localgov #localgovernment #loyalty #retailinspired #placemaking #localcouncils #regeneration #highstreet #towns #towncentres #instagood #instadaily #time #openingtimes #collaboration #planning #localplan #joinedup #customerexperience #customerservice #economy #shoplocal #centralgovernment #thinkdifferently #retailers #businesses #digital #digitalmarketing #websites #loveyourhighstreet (at Kent, Kent, United Kingdom)

Consumer behaviour continues to evolve at such a rapid pace leaving many high streets and town centres requiring new strategies to entice visitors to bricks and mortar stores. Having a seamless strategy online and offline is vital. Reviewing strategies in line with current consumer trends will be required for retailers operating within these towns and cities to survive in today's challenging times. We have the pleasure of working with town centres and both established and emerging brands within the industry with the aim to assist them in achieving their goals and being successful in today's retail climate. Brands that place their C U S T O M E R S at the heart of every decision with product and experience at the forefront of their strategies will continue to achieve future growth and retain customers. We would love to hear you're experiences and how you have revised your brand strategy to remain competitive!

When it comes to innovation then independent businesses currently have the edge on the multiples. Why? Despite tough trading conditions independent retailers are able to offer a unique product mix due to knowing who their customers are and adapting their buying each season. Some of the most inspirational independent retailers are implementing brand strategies that are truly tailored to the locality and becoming part of the community. Our next blog post will explore how the retail industry should be 👀 L O O K I N G at this sector and how they are delivering unique products, targeted customer engagement, retaining and growing their customers. . . . . . #futuretown #futurehighstreet #highstreet #customerexperience #retailinspired #indieretail #shoplocal #digitalmarketing #product #digital #brandstrategy #brands #unique #instagood #instadaily #instabrand #retail #placebranding #placemaking (at Kent, Kent, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bn0h3ZllFM3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1cp7tr2xvhu3g

With retailers in summer sale right now it is all too easy to neglect customer experience both online and in store. We witness this everyday through our work with brands. Customers expect a seamless experience when purchasing from any brand and they don't differentiate between the physical store or online (as retailers so often do) There are many retailers getting it right but there are a few that get it so wrong especially during the sale period. It is vital that retailers review their procedures as a bikini purchased at sale price today could be a full price coat in the autumn and brand loyalty. #mondaymotivation #retailproblems #retailinspired (at Kent, Kent, United Kingdom)
