The numbers are in! According to the April 2018 RSR Research Benchmark Report for Merchandising and Pricing, almost 50% of retailers have plans and / or budget to implement an assortment-related technology in the next 18 to 36 months. This doesn’t come as a surprise as nearly 70% of high-growth retailers believe these technologies are highly valuable to the success of their organizations.

However, assortment planning projects are hard. Fewer than 50% of those high-growth retailers report being satisfied with the assortment-related technologies they’ve implemented.

This leaves retailers with two questions:

  1. Why are more than half of my peers dissatisfied with their assortment-related technologies?
  2. How can my team and I avoid common pitfalls during the selection, implementation and training of a new assortment-related technology or procedure?

Paula Rosenblum and Peter Charness answer these questions in this webinar.
