Just imagine, currently your best customers can’t buy in your shopping centers !
Today, e-commerce is a way of life. 76.3% of all Americans shop online. And, 85% of online shoppers purchase an average order of $180. But none of these online consumers can either shop or purchase online in your shopping centers. Not even your own family members.
Fact: 5% to 35% of your tenants’ sales are now online (and growing fast). These growing online sales are not coming from your malls…and never will – without ROOF.
Any chance you are still in the ‘brick-n-mortar-only’ frame of mind ? Modernize your properties to gain these E-Commerce customers and revenue plus improve relations with your tenants and local community. E-Commerce Is ‘Today’s World’ and your shopping centers need to be there. With ROOF: It’s Fast. It’s Easy. It’s Inexpensive.
ROOF (Rapid Online Order Fulfillment) immediately brings you 5 main customer groups you do NOT currently have and never will have without ROOF.
1. “Mobility Challenged” Shoppers who can’t easily get to your malls: Seniors; Caregivers; Disabled (temporary or permanent); Busy Families; Offices.
2. “Convenience First” Shoppers who are the 80% of locals who prefer strip malls due to easier parking, less walking, proximity to their homes.
3. “Extended Reach” Shoppers who are currently outside your normal trading area (buying from competitive shopping centers elsewhere in town).
4. “Internet Savvy” Shoppers who 10 years ago were 1% of the population and 0.7% of sales, but today are 76.3% of the population and 12.6% of your core retail sales – AND growing to 35% of sales within 10 years.
5. “Regular LOYAL” Shoppers who are in your malls every day. They see what they want and go home and order it online – elsewhere. They also order in your stores – but only what they can carry. You can double these sales if you provide ROOF – help them get it home quickly and inexpensively. ROOF also improves your community goodwill and tenant goodwill as well as increasing your sales 25% and profits over 50%.
ROOF is your insurance and hedge against recessionary downturns as well as greater e-commerce sales upticks: Thrifty shoppers always need ROOF since it saves them money and time.
Open your ROOF program today and let these new, higher-spending, e-commerce (and phone-order) customers in.
ROOF has been called the “Holy Grail” for shopping centers – but your customers who really NEED it still don’t have it ! Your innovative dynamic leadership is required.
