YRC decodes 5 Winnings Steps for Furniture Retailers

Retail consulting firm Your Retail Coach (YRC) reaches out to furniture retail ( https://www.yourretailcoach.in/industries/retail-furniture-furnishings-consulting/ ) brands and businesses shedding light on five important insights that are instrumental in the contemporary business environment to remain stable and competitive. YRC's team of retail consultants elaborates on these insights in this communiqué.

Getting the numbers right

Aspiring entrepreneurs in the furniture market must assess the strength and sustainability of their business ideas/projects via the necessary financial and commercial projections. This must also be done in a planned, all-encompassing, and systematic manner. The financial and commercial estimates and statements that come out of this process have a direct bearing on the implementation of the business idea. Getting the numbers right not only is an effort to validate a business idea but later it also serves as a guide map for financial and commercial decision-making.

From customer experience to customer loyalty
In furniture retailing, the overall experience meted out to customers plays a crucial role not just for converting footfalls into sales but also for securing customer loyalty. It is tempting to believe that furniture being one-time purchases over long intervals, customer loyalty need not be an area to focus intensely. In the case of furniture, products and services keep doing the talking (read promotion) even years after purchase. So, whether it is the showroom or the assembling or after-sales support, at every touchpoint or point of service or interaction, customer experience should be treated with care.

Use of market research analytics

Today, businesses are reaching out to both online and offline customers with the use of market research analytics. There is an ocean of information in the digital world. It helps businesses identify potential market regions, get ideas for product development, improvise their services, identify competition, comprehend competitors' strategies, better understand consumer behaviour and the list goes on. The same set of benefits is available to furniture retailers as well.

Today, many offline furniture retailers with their own workshops keep a close tab on the design trends, competitors' offerings, prices set by competitors on similar products, online customer reviews, etc. And these are not even analytics but plain information floating on the internet. The use of analytics further enables businesses to derive more meaningful and complicated insights for use in different areas of business decision-making.

Selective Merchandising & Effective Layout Planning
As the majority of furniture products tend to be bulky by nature, it creates numerous problems in the areas of merchandising, assembling, handling, and transportation. The challenges are not limited to physical retailing format. ECommerce-based brands also have to pay their logistics and warehouse bills. With mobility as a constraint, businesses have to be specific and tactical with their merchandising decisions. Every design and every variant cannot be there even with positive demand predictions.

As finished furniture products also consume a lot of space, it puts the additional burden of managing with the available space. Whether it is the workshop, warehouse, or the store, expert layout planning is vital to make the best of these spaces.

Digital Marketing and Automation

Digital information-sharing and virtual experiences have emerged as powerful platforms in furniture retailing ( https://www.yourretailcoach.in/industries/retail-furniture-furnishings-consulting/ ). The use of digital/automation solutions help improve the customer journey and customer experience. Making information available on the business website makes it easier for customers to fill their information gaps. Presence on relevant social platforms is a great way to reach out to audiences. Furniture retailers should consider adopting the use of AR technology to help customers choose/customise their products through smartphone applications.
