For retailers, how well they perform will depend on how well they are able to manage the major shifts within the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-an-earlier-start-black-friday-is-now\"><strong>An earlier start: Black Friday is <em>now<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Holiday creep\u2014the idea that seasonal shopping periods start earlier and earlier in the year\u2014is a very real phenomenon, and Christmas tends to be the biggest contributor. Last year, we saw major retailers like Target, Walmart and Amazon offer holiday promotions as early as October\u2014a strategy that helped deliver strong earnings and mitigate supply chain crimps by extending the shopping season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year, an uncertain economic landscape and the high-stakes U.S. presidential election is likely to see the majority of retailers start the season even earlier, possibly in September. And perhaps that\u2019s a blessing, given that there are only 27 shopping days between cutting the turkey and trimming the tree in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the consumer side, there is bound to be a bit of a Goldilocks effect. For some, September holiday sales will be far too early; but for others, they will be just right. The question is: How do retailers determine which shoppers fall into each category and reach them accordingly?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.capgemini.com\/insights\/research-library\/great-generative-ai-customer-experiences-in-action\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.capgemini.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Capgemini_GenerativeAI_Great_customer_experiences_in_action_CPR_POV5.png?w=960\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1033472\" style=\"width:318px;height:auto\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s where data and AI come in.

Meanwhile, Amazon Wish List has successfully adopted registry buying, digital gifting, and gifting services, into their e-commerce platform. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By making the shopper journey simpler, more convenient, and more connected, it\u2019s possible for retailers across segments to begin building loyalty that will deliver results well beyond the holiday season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-win-conversion-is-critical-but-fulfillment-is-the-clutch\"><strong>The win: Conversion is critical, but fulfillment is the clutch<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Regardless of what channels your retail organization plans to focus on this year, the unifying theme is: <em>convert where you can<\/em>. Whether your target consumer is browsing in-store, scrolling on social media, or hanging in a gaming platform in the metaverse, it\u2019s important to have an easy way for them to purchase directly within that channel and also enable them to seamlessly switch to another if they prefer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The other related and perhaps even more important element in building loyalty is fulfillment. One of the best ways to build a meaningful and lasting relationship with your target audience is by delivering on the \u2018customer promise\u2019. That means stocking the advertised products in stores and reducing any friction during the physical journey, as well as ensuring digital orders are processed and shipped according to the agreed terms.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Reinventing grocery with consumer-centric fulfillment strategies | Capgemini #retail\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6LOOL4cibLs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<p>Walmart is already investing in \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20231017386461\/en\/Walmart-Opens-High-Tech-Fulfillment-Center-Near-Dallas\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">high-tech<\/a>\u201d fulfillment centers that will help set the company up for success in every season.

It\u2019s an extended period of strategic marketing, relationship building, and omnichannel excellence. <strong>To capitalize, retailers need to remember these key takeaways:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Start the season early:<\/strong> In an unpredictable financial climate, kicking off the holiday shopping season early can drive channel growth and alleviate potential challenges. Implementing sub-category sales not only opens new revenue streams but also spreads out the demand, easing pressure on supply chains and ensuring a steady flow of inventory.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Deepen customer connections with data and AI:&nbsp;<\/strong>Personalization is no longer a luxury but a requirement. Leveraging data and AI to create tailored shopping experiences fosters deeper connections with customers, aligning with the growing demand for individualized attention. This approach nurtures loyalty and ensures that each interaction resonates with the customer&#8217;s preferences and needs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ensure consistency with predictive analytics:&nbsp;<\/strong>The integration of intelligent technology and predictive analytics is crucial for maintaining consistent fulfillment across all channels. By anticipating seasonal demand and aligning stock levels with trend forecasts, retailers can keep shelves stocked and deliver timely service, enhancing the overall customer experience.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>By integrating these strategies into their holiday planning, retailers can confidently navigate the complexities of rapidly evolving consumer behavior and varied expectations. Proactively adapting and harnessing the power of data and intelligent technology can enable them to not just participate but to lead and maximize the potential of the holiday season.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n\t\t<section\n\t\t\tclass=\"section section--lifeatcap-learning section--event-slider-careerInvent \">\n\n\t\t\t<div
