Book excerpt: Amazon disrupts everything it touches and upends any market it enters. In the era of its game-changing dominance, how can any company compete? We are just witnessing the start of the radical changes in retail that will revolutionize shopping in every way. As Amazon and other disruptors continue to offer ever-greater value, customers' expectations will continue to ratchet up, making winning (and keeping) those customers all the more challenging. For some retailers, the changes will push customers permanently out of their reach--and their companies out of business. In The Shopping Revolution, Barbara E. Kahn, a foremost retail expert and professor at The Wharton School, examines the companies that have been most successful during this wave of change, and offers fresh insights into what we can learn from their ascendance. How did Amazon become the retailer of choice for a large portion of the US population, and how can other companies work with them or compete with them? How did Walmart beat out other grocers in the late 1990s to become the leader in food retailing, and how must they pivot to hold their leadership position today? How did Warby Parker make a dent in the once-untouchable Luxottica's lucrative eyewear business, and what can that tell start-ups about how to unseat a Goliath? How did Sephora draw customers away from once-dominant department stores to become the go-to retailers for beauty products, and what can retailers learn from their success? How are luxury and fast-fashion retailers competing in the ever-changing, fickle world of fashion? Building on these insights, Kahn offers a framework that any company can use to create a competitive strategy to survive and thrive in today's--and tomorrow's--retail environment. The Shopping Revolution is a must-read for those in the retailing business who want to develop an effective strategy, entrepreneurs looking at starting their own business, and anyone interested in understanding the changing landscape in which they are shopping. Barbara E. Kahn is Patty and Jay H. Baker Professor of Marketing at The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania. She served two terms as the Director of the Jay H. Baker Retailing Center. Prior to rejoining Wharton in 2011, Barbara served as the Dean and Schein Professor of Marketing at the School of Business Administration, University of Miami (from 2007 to 2011). Before becoming Dean at UM, she spent 17 years at Wharton as Silberberg Professor of Marketing. She was also Vice Dean of the Wharton Undergraduate program. She is the author of Global Brand Power: Leveraging Branding for Long-Term Growth and co-author of The Grocery Revolution: The New Focus on the Consumer, which documented the changes in the grocery business in the mid-1990s when Walmart became a force in the industry.

Retail management includes all the steps required to bring the customers into the store and fulfill their buying needs. Retail management makes shopping a pleasurable experience and ensures the customers leave the store with a smile. In simpler words, retail management helps customers shop without any difficulty. Retailing in any field tends to be an incredibly competitive process and customer-facing stores are perhaps one of the tougher forms of business to manage. There is a lot that can potentially emerge to trip up even the most experienced and diligent of retail business operators but with the right approach, there’s also a huge amount that can be achieved. Here are 5 focus points that might be helpful if you’re looking to improve the way you run your retail business and exceed your customer's expectations. Understand and Respond to What Your Customers Want Like a lot of tips, our first one here is rather more easily said than done but that, in a sense, is precisely the point. Retailers need to do whatever it takes to get to know their customers and to react to what they find out quickly. You might be able to tick over by offering the same products in the same way as a matter of routine but lasting success can generally only be built on flexibility and a willingness to change along with habits among your customers. Get to Know Your Competition Like every other business around, retailers do not exist in a vacuum and it is vital for all manner of reasons that company bosses are aware of what their rivals are offering. These days, retail competitors can come in many different forms, be it online or otherwise, and bosses should frequently take the time to get a sense of the experiences being offered elsewhere. Whether or not you decide to integrate certain ideas into your own operation, competitor research is essential because it lets you know exactly what you’re up against and that information can prove to be invaluable. Invest in Your People The members of a retailer’s workforce are the face of the business on a day-to-day basis and the way that they interact with customers is very important. Hiring the right people to join your team is a key starting point but the story can’t stop there and providing quality training should always be high on the agenda. This goes for staff on the shop floor, as well as supervisors and managers. Always Look to the Future The past may well have a lot to teach us as business bosses but for retailers it’s vital to focus firmly on the future. It’s important not to dwell too much on prior successes or failures and to remain as objective as possible as you assess different situations and dynamics. Every experience is a lesson but a good retail manager will not be obsessed with what has gone before but will be quick to understand where opportunities may lie for the future. Be Ready for Anything One of the great things about being involved in retailing is the sheer variety of the challenges it presents from week to week and year to year. For those in charge of retail companies or operations, there is a lot to be said for expecting the unexpected and being ready to react at all times. Ultimately, the aim should be to focus on solving one problem at a time and not wasting energy on figuring out who to blame when things don’t go quite according to plan.
