Retailers Quotations | Page 4

Retailers (now) want to be very visible from the roads they don't want (their customers) to have to traverse the mall to get there.

Retailers need to understand who their customers are and how they act differently on the Web as opposed to in the store. They need to be able to recognize customers and the type of transactions they engage in, transactions that are based on which channel the customer is shopping in.

Retailers need to identify a proprietary winning formula based upon their unique customer base. Ultimately, brands and retailers that grow together are compelling partnerships that produce the most profitable incomes.

Retailers needed to be promotional because of the energy story. We didn't really see any strengthening this season, but we didn't really see any weakening either.

Retailers must always be focused on knowing their customers. But in desperate times like these that message gets hammered home because the competition is so fierce for a limited amount of dollars.

Retailers may think their voice doesn't count, but without it, we can't be effective. When a legislator receives a call from a voter in their district, they really sit up and take notice.

Retailers may have struggled to clear through certain cold-weather seasonal items, perhaps resulting in deeper markdowns on those items.

Retailers look forward to the Super Bowl every year, knowing that it means big business.

Retailers know this stuff works and that consumers like it when it's done properly.

Retailers know that many people will wait until after Christmas for the big purchases. So they don't want to go too far into the holidays with excess inventory that they eventually will heavily discount.
