A generic shopping experience represents a high risk for a company operating in a fashion or sporting goods industry. These are highly dynamic and fast-paced environments that do not leave any space for marketing or merchandising strategy mistakes. The digital shopping experience needs to be responsive to trends and the changing tastes of customers. It needs to appeal individually to each customer. This is where AI Optimization and Personalization come in: dynamic and individualized shopping.
Applying AI optimizations helps retailers optimize their marketing efforts and directly affect customer conversion and increase sales. For a highly competitive industry such as sports & goods retail, a generic approach is not going to be sufficient to “win” the customers and stay competitive in the long run. Every dollar in the marketing budget has to be used with maximum efficiency, and each move should be tested and evaluated to optimize the overall business strategy.
