The Challenge with Traditional Visual Merchandising
Retailers often rely on historical sales reports, intuition, or sporadic audits to inform their merchandising strategies. These outdated methods come with limitations:
-
Subjective Visual Decisions
Layouts are based on guesswork, not real-time behavior.
-
Lack of Data Integration
Physical and digital data are rarely unified.
-
Manual Heat Mapping
In-store customer movement is poorly tracked and analyzed.
-
Delayed Layout Adjustments
Updates happen too slowly to match shopper behavior.
-
Inefficient Use of Prime Real Estate
High-margin or trending products may not receive optimal placement.
