Keeping Up Appearances In The Retail Industry: The Importance Of Continuity For Your Brand Identity

How do you get people to think about your brand when your role is to feature and promote the brands of others? That’s the challenge retailers constantly face as they look for ways to outfit their stores with merchandising items. If you think about it, you’ve actually got 3 objectives:
Increase customer satisfaction by using merchandising to create a better shopping experience
Support vendor relations by helping them profile products
Promote their own overall brand
To outsiders, it might seem like your merchandising material couldn’t possibly serve all three masters at once. But, retailers do this all the time. The most successful ones know it all comes down to keeping their signals straight.
