Retailers To Rethink This Holiday Season

 

From the privacy changes with Apple to the ongoing controversy with Facebook ethics, consumer and moving away from Facebook apps.  As a result, many retailers need to reconsider and potentially change their marketing methods this holiday season. We can expect more catalogues, TV ads and celebrity sponsorships.

Many direct-to-consumer companies have built their businesses on Facebook, which is becoming an issue as these companies have to think of new ways to connect with customers.  More interestingly, companies are looking to brick-and-mortar stores to diversify their marketing mix.  Are retail stores back?

And while there is definitely a shift in the marketing spend mindset, another challenge for retailers is the supply chain disruption.  Companies will face the issue of meeting customer demand this holiday season.
