As big data has exploded, the ability for companies to easily leverage it has imploded. Organizations are drowning in their own information, unable to see the forest through the trees, while the big players consistently outperform in their ability to deliver a great customer experience, faster, cheaper…As a result, the vast majority of companies are scrambling to catch up and become more agile, data-driven, to use their data more effectively so they can attract and retain their elusive customers...
In this joint deck by 451 Research and Treasure Data, you will learn how to enable your line of business team to own their own data (instead of relying on IT) to be able to:
- deliver a single, persistent view of your customer based on behavior data
- make that data accessible to the right people at the right time
- Increase organizational effectiveness by (finally) breaking down silos with data
- enable powerful marketing tools to enhance the customer experience

No longer brick-and-mortar vs. online retail: Customers view a ‘single lens’
Roughly 85-90 percent of retail still takes place in brick-and-mortar locations
Retail is not dead - but BAD brick-and-mortar is.
These mall-type department stores are faced with many challenges because they aren’t connecting with shoppers in the way they want to be connected with. Consumers already know what to expect when walking into one of these stores.”
E-commerce brands are making sure that’s not the case with their new stores by interlacing digital touch points and apps with their physical presence. “We are seeing a blurring of the lines between what is really digital and what is brick-and-mortar retail
The brands that can embrace the convergence of offline behavior and online media and use that effectively, those are the brands that are really striving,
For instance, on its first day of officially owning Whole Foods last week, Amazon began selling its Echo devices to grocery shoppers
If a brand can afford it, there’s a lot of benefits to occupying a retail location. Not only do physical stores cater to digital generations attracted to experiences, but conversion rates in stores are also higher than online, according to Dvorak. Brick-and-mortars also benefit when it comes to web search: Google prioritizes brands that have physical locations. Type in a topic or product into Google, and the search engine will surface a brand that has a retail store higher than one with only an online presence.
In the last couple of years, retailers’ attention has shifted from e-commerce to omni-channel retail, blurring the lines between the physical and the digital. The rising ubiquity of mobile connectivity has further spurred retailers’ interest in adopting Internet of Things (IoT) solutions to improve the shopping experience for their customers as well as smoothen operational processes.
The trends in omni-channel retail is to go “phygital” – for physical stores to become digital. Today, despite the flourishing e-commerce business model, brick-and-mortar stores continue to pull in 91% of all retail sales generated across all platforms, an indicator that the physical retail is a turf to safeguard.
To make the in-store shopping experience more intuitive and seamless, retailers are supplementing technology in their physical stores, turning the entire space into a smart store that automatically senses and records the location and movement of virtually everything — merchandise, associates, shoppers and assets — and translates that data into easy-to-read actionable intelligence that delivers real competitive advantage.
The phygital retail space combines the best of two worlds – the tactile satisfaction of physical retail and the intuitiveness of ecommerce.
It is predicted that in four years, 75% of the retailers will make use of location-based services to deliver personalized shopping experiences. By then, they will be able to know when a customer steps into a store and where they spend most of their shopping time.
Data is Knowledge
Data analytics is at the heart of digital retail,
Although digital data analytics is still nascent, especially in the retail space, its promise is boundless.
Whether its a permanent store, pop-up or short-term space, experts agree–having a brick-and-mortar presence often strengthens the trust between brand and consumer. “Pretty much anybody can sell something online these days, but to have a physical location, there is definitely a brand legitimacy in that,” said Dvorak. “It gives the sense to the consumer that the business is going to be in it for the long haul.”
Brands with a brick-and-mortar presence tend to offer a more personal customer experience versus their online-only competition, but they often fall short on convenience and rapid inventory availability. However, through an integrated approach, these same retailers can deliver the accessibility of online shopping and the advantage of personalization, tailored advice and support in product fulfillment when products are out of stock or unavailable.
Both Best Buy and Home Depot are among the retailers that have adopted a blended omnichannel strategy and increased or sustained revenues while not opening a single additional retail store this past year.

Target:
• Over half of Target's digital sales growth is enabled by its stores, CEO Brian Cornell told CNBC.
Over half of Target's digital sales growth is enabled by stores, Cornell explained. That includes shoppers ringing up purchases online before picking them up in person, or shoppers browsing Target's aisles before buying something from Target.com.
Target's stores are also increasingly serving as fulfillment centers — 1,400 of them can act in that capacity today. And heading into the holidays, the retailer's stores could support north of 80 percent of online orders
Target's digital sales climbed 24 percent in the latest period but still account for only 4.3 percent of total company sales. According to Cornell, the shift of spending done online versus offline will evolve over time, but Target's stores will continue to support digital sales by fulfilling internet orders.
Target has reported its Q3 results, which reveal a 1.4% year-over-year (YoY) increase in sales, bringing its quarterly revenue up to nearly $16.7 billion. The retailer’s comparable sales saw an uptick of .9%, and while that’s only a small jump, it gives Target two consecutive quarters of growing comparable sales, after the metric declined in each of the three previous periods.
Digital comparable sales accounted for .8% of this growth, making digital the catalyst of Target’s comparable sales turnaround. Target’s comparable digital sales grew 24% YoY on their own, marking five consecutive quarters of 20%-plus growth.
Some of the retailer’s investments may be paying off as traffic increased 1.4% YoY.
• The retailer’s exclusive private-label push may be attracting more consumers.The retailer’s private labels have done well recently, and that performance is likely to continue. Target also plans to launch several more private labels in the near future. These products are exclusive to Target, and because consumers appear to like them, it is possible they are drawing in more shoppers.
• Target continues to remodel and open stores that offer a more appealing shopping experience. Digital sales may be driving Target, but its in-store performance is no longer dragging it down, which is likely due to its investment in its stores. The retailer has opened several small-format stores and plans to open another 75 by 2019. These stores offer a faster and more curated shopping experience that may appeal more to some consumers. It has also committed to remodeling 600 stores in order to better display merchandise and make shopping more enjoyable for consumers.
Q4 and the holiday season offer an opportunity for Target to further its e-commerce success going forward. For Target, e-commerce tends to spike in Q4 as a percentage of its total business, setting the tone for the next three quarters. For instance, after a successful Q4 2016, e-commerce in Q1-Q3 2017 represented a higher percentage of the company’s total business than the comparable periods in 2016. Q4 2017 is likely to see a similar jump in e-commerce, as customers appear to shop online more for the holidays with Target.
Therefore, the retailer should make sure it offers the best online experience possible. This will help it keep customers coming back to its digital options, raising the amount e-commerce makes up of its business for the foreseeable future, and allowing digital sales to continue to drive its comparable sales growth.
Matt: It’s perfectly normal that in any organization you have multiple departments, business units and geographic entities, and each of those has its own associated data, although that has potential issues in terms of duplication of data for example, and data in different formats
The real challenge comes when you try to integrate that data to create a single view. With traditional data warehousing projects that meant not just integrating the data into a central location, but normalizing it into a standard format
That leads to large scale projects, led by IT, with a focus on data management, rather than the original business problem, significant cost and complexity, and barriers to insight
In response to which there is every chance that someone within the business will take matters into their own hands, spinning up yet another database, and exacerbating the original problem
Matt: Technology is becoming increasingly central to how individuals experience the world around them.
It is shifting the center of gravity from businesses to individuals in an unprecedented way.
Catering to users’ preferred ways of consuming information, engaging with brands is becoming an increasingly critical part of businesses strategic value proposition and competitive differentiation.

Making Data lake a reality
Matt...customer..physical store and ecommerce direction. Ask Rob..about what he’s seen
Customer service has traditionally driven by systems of engagement. Traditionally that engagement was physical, and person-to-person. Help, advice, suggestions and recommendations were provided and questions were answered (or not) by the employee. Even the transaction was performed physically, before being entered into the system of record (financial/ERP, CRM applications). That data was then made available for analysis
Using our self-service CDP, campaign managers of a world top 10 gaming company created 25 segments in the first 7 days.
How do you then use that data be and remain competitive?Rob- look at real world examples of companies succeedingMatt to chime in with perspective that success predicated on core platform...scalability, flexibility for business agility
Rob: Really knowing the customer
Customer profile/descriptions important | customer representation complex and requires flexibility Common first request from customers: I want to know who my best customers are and serve them betterCustomer example 1: game console used by children, but illegal to market to them = profile as a family
Customer example: gaming customers use data to impact product, make more engaging for upsell and retention. Must know behavior of customer, gaming preferences and right time to make an offer
Rob: Customer example 2: selling through professional organizations and wish to know your customer’s customer
