OMNICHANNEL RETAIL

Physical and digital convergence for sales and services, COIN’s Experience fast forward!

With Endless Aisle solutions we support the concept of having strong store associates who are incentivized to sell and paid by how much they sell. If you don't have store associates who believe in your omnichannel or Endless Aisle initiatives in your store, they will fail. Having a point of sale system that is integrated into those Endless Aisle initiatives is critical.”

MARKETING

Story Selling: once upon a time, the Amazon Whisperer…

Amazon is no longer just a Marketplace, but it represents the most important starting point for Searching for products online. Amazon is therefore a Search Engine with its own algorithm for which it is necessary to provide an effective positioning and indexing strategy in order to improve the visibility of products, by leveraging specific SEO optimization factors. It is also an opportunity for companies that want to elevate their brand, with dedicated formats, in synergy with their own strategies on sales.

TECHNOLOGY

Self Adaptive Recommender Engine, a publishing industry case history.

Product Recommenders are becoming one of the most important means of communication between retail companies and their customers. One-to-one marketing helps to increase both Customer Engagement and to boost sales on E-commerce platforms, while on the other hand automated analytics helps improve the efficiency and the reactivity of the actions. Reply has developed a tailor made version of a Recommender Engine which can take advantage of various types of interactions of the customer with the product (purchases, ratings, web page views, social sharing actions…) and is capable to automatically adapt over time to specific customer needs by listening to the feedback actions collected. A real case developed for a client in the Publishing Industry will be presented.

LOGISTICS

e-Logistics: Services Beyond the Product

The importance of developing a robust e-commerce offering comes from the desire to satisfy evolving customer needs. We’re living in an age of ‘everywhere at anytime’ commerce and to succeed companies must differentiate by extending their proposition with innovative, value-added services.  Logistics for omnichannel strategies and smart delivery are becoming the new competitive arenas.  A digital supply chain must provide the accessibility, configurability and flexibility to cater to the specific needs of individuals and to improve customer service.

ANALYTICS

Data-Driven Automation: How to manage information through an intelligent platform

Effectiveness and timing are the needs that in recent years are driving companies decisions towards data-driven transformation. Being data-driven means having the ability to collect data effectively, correlate and analyze data to extract hidden phenomena, behaviours and the ability to transform data into a valuable product or service. The virtuous companies of innovation have broken the gap by adopting technologies and organizational models that put data at the center: Big Data platforms enable the work of Data Labs - a team of Data Scientist experts that transform raw data into final products: online adviser, real-time price optimization engines, Churn prevention systems, etc. Data Reply is a partner in the reconstruction of the backoffice for sales points from a process-driven concept to a data-driven concept; in which technologies, processes and applications have been chosen to enable services in real time and connect the physical point of sale with the virtual one.

ADVANCED CONTROL OF ECOMMERCE PLATFORMS
Blue Reply


The AI ​​and Application Performance Monitoring technologies, appropriately integrated, enable all the stakeholders of an ecommerce platform to have control, management and vision of all the elements that contribute to the technical and business performance of the platform, regardless of the technological platform used.

Blue Reply has implemented as a commerce solutions, a technological and methodological framework that allows the optimisation of the level of control in terms of technical and business performance. In particular, Dynatrace was used for the Application Performance Monitoring and IBM Watson Conversation in order to create a supporting digital agent. The two technologies were integrated and evolved with specific implementations that increased completeness by providing: a dashboard with a portfolio of KPI business oriented (as well as technical) and a digital agent (Chatbot) that allows the user to interact on a new channel and with a new User Experience. The demo will be developed specifically for Netcomm and will only be a prototype. The company intends to represent, as a use case, a negative performance of ecommerce in terms of sales in order to show how the dashboard works. The user can ask in the natural language (verbally or in writing) to the chatbot the cause of the degradation; the system will show the problem in dashboard.

DIGITAL EXPERIENCE DESIGN, FOR DIGITAL PAYMENTS
Pay Reply


The retail market is characterized by a profound digital transformation that involves both operating and business models. In the area of ​​payments, this sector is mainly impacted by two elements: the introduction of innovative payment methods that are flanked by the traditional monetary instruments (eg Alipay in the fashion sector), the creation of innovative purchasing and payment experiences that allow interaction between physical and digital stores.

In this context, Pay Reply has developed skills on Digital Payment which include specialized consultancy, Customer Experience design and technological development. The introduction on the market of POS Android and the new paradigm of distribution of services based on store, has allowed us to develop a specific expertise in the implementation of payment solutions that make the most of its potential. As part of NetComm, Pay Reply wants to present its know-how and design methodology and fast prototyping whilst presenting some cases linked to payment via Android POS.
