By Kate Enright So what is it about social media that can make an impact on your sales figures? You hear the term, you know people use it, a lot, but what about its use in your industry? In your store? Well, for starters, the growth in social media usage has a lot to do with the rapid and extreme growth in the use of smart mobile technology over the past 3 years. The stats on mobile are undeniable. In 2011, there were 835 million smartphone users and 5.6 billion feature phone users, by 2015 there will be 7.4 billion smart devices in the market. And Mobile technology means that people are always available, always connected. [caption id="attachment_1085" align="aligncenter" width="500"] Nielsen Study[/caption]

by Kate Enright Today there are an increasing number of channels for consumers to complete purchases. Some take advantage of these and some don’t, but which type consumers make a more significant value increase for the retailer? First of all, let’s take a look at what’s out there. Currently, we have the traditional “brick-and-mortar” high street stores, the old-school brochure ordering systems, ecommerce sites, social media platform integration, in-store online installations, and mobile commerce is exploding with mobile sites and apps becoming increasingly popular for smart shoppers. So what most retailers want to know is; is it worth their while investing in multiple channels? And if they do, will it increase sales and improve loyalty?
