Do you know anyone who does not own a mobile device? Consumers use mobile devices not only for communicating but for shopping as well. Searching for product information, inquiring about services, comparing prices, and purchasing make up just some of the shopping functions done on mobile devices. How does digital change how firms do business? What are the differences between desktop computer shoppers and mobile device shoppers? Moreover, are firms prepared to do business in this changing environment? As tablet owners relax in the evenings, they are powering up those tablets, and using tablet time for shopping. Does this behavior differ from those sitting at their desktop computers and browse online? Understanding the differences between those shopping in electronic commerce and those purchasing in mobile commerce allows firms to gain a larger foothold in the digital commerce market. The purpose of this book is to answer questions concerning the benefits of mobile commerce and its commonalities and contrasts with electronic commerce. Electronic commerce is still viable and we examine its validity along with mobile commerce. Mobile commerce is not electronic commerce, and we discuss the differences, as well as how one can enhance the other. Consumers use both electronic commerce and mobile commerce, as well as offline shopping, on their path to purchase in total omnichannel environment--using all channels. We integrate the opportunities and challenges to bring an idea of the future of marketing with an emphasis on both mobile and electronic commerce, into digital commerce.

Nowadays, brands that want to strive have to focus on their customers in a sustainable and scalable way by realising a full integration of digital technologies as part of their digital transformation.

The luxury journey was and still remains about immerging the clients into the brand’s own universe, they just had new tools to achieve this. Dominated by the mono-brand and multi-brand stores, the online channels quickly made a place for themselves in the luxury market, giving customers the option of having their experience offline or not. The sector never stopped growing over time, attracting more clients and countries each year. With the globalization, luxury brand had to find a way to stay relevant. That’s where the omnichannel approach came through: proposing a seamless experience to the customers where all channels are connected and deliver the same services. The pandemic that occurred in 2020 forced many luxury brands to tap into their digital side, unlocking some new ways of selling the products and many opportunities to thrive online thanks to their social media and websites. But the future of physical stores became a concern for many luxury brands. In this thesis, we will analyze if the offline channels in the luxury industry could continue to thrive in this digital era.

Omnichannel was a fashionable word in the retail a few years back and in 2014, 71% of the retailers had engaged in an omnichannel strategy and 24% were working toward it (Oracle retail, 2014) : the phenomenon keeps growing rapidly. Nowadays, the customers require to have a flawless experience throughout all the channels, whether it is for information research, for purchase or any others actions the customers may want to take with the retailers. And those who would not satisfy their customers might lose them forever. Moreover, the eCommerce and digital technologies steadily take a greater importance in the retail world. In Belgium, 61% of the 16-64 years old own a smartphone (Digimedia, 2016). We might therefore think that eCommerce and the mobile devices, to a lesser extent, would completely replace the traditional brick-and-mortar shops and that those would eventually disappear. But it is absolutely not the case : people still love physical stores and the mobile is not their main tool to purchase and it is not indented to become so. People are social creatures and love face-to-face interactions. They also want to touch, fell and try the products when buying a product. This is where the concept of in-store digital experience appeared : the use of digital technologies inside a physical store. This concept can delight every consumer : there is still the physical side for the most conservative ones but they can also use their smartphones inside the store to help them in the purchasing decisions. This technique improves consequently their in-store experience and then, the customers tend to buy more. Indeed, improved shopping experience can grow revenue by 5% to 10% over a span of three years and 75% of people have spent more with a company because of a history of positive customer experiences (VisionCritical, 2016). MediaMarkt asked me what they would have to do to develop their mobile strategy and this is the conclusion I reached, especially in the consumer electronics and home appliances sector where the customers still shop in store the most. Moreover, MediaMarkt will be the first to develop its mobile strategy and improving its in-store experience compared to its Belgian competitors who do not even have a mobile application. With this development, MediaMarkt will confirm its position as a leader in the Belgian market.

Méca-Fluid is a company providing equipment such as industrial valves and pneumatic components. In a more and more digitalized environment and a world ruled by new technologies, the company realized the importance of an active online presence. By wishing to launch an e-commerce, the company pursues three main goals: first, the company wants to offer a brand new sales channel and quality services to its consumers, then it wishes to increase its visibility and develop this new prospecting and sales channel and finally to develop and strengthen its brand awareness and brand image as a specialist. In order to suggest a strategy to fulfill these goals, I carried out a business model of the company. It allowed me to discover how important the quality of the relationships the company maintains with its consumers is. Then, I conducted a benchmark analysis which showed me that only one competitor of Méca-Fluid actually sells its products online. This brought me to the realization that an ecommerce represents a real growth opportunity for the company. After that, I carried out a customer survey which, among others, made me realize how customers are attached to the quality of services provided by Méca-Fluid, that only a few of them spend time on social medias during business hours whereas lots of them use search engines and some of them show interest in an industrial blog and newsletters. Since the company has a limited budget, it can’t afford to implement all the digital marketing tools I suggested. This is why I ranked the tools to implement first to offer a great service quality for consumers on the website, to increase company’s visibility on search engines and to develop the company’s brand awareness and brand image. Finally, after launching its website, I advise the company to carry out a user testing and implement websites analytics tools in order to get precious information about its audience and its behavior.
