MindTree: Retail 2.0 – The New Paradigm
In today's retailing ecosystem, retailers have been hard at work trying to create a customer/user experience at every retail channel that creates a higher level of satisfaction and increases the likelihood of repeat visits and purchases. It all culminates in incremental revenue velocity a holy grail in this economy. But retailers have created a tough environment for themselves. By offering consumers multiple, robust retail channels to purchase goods, merchants have heightened consumers' expectations of any given retail engagement. Now consumers expect a shopping experience that is consistent with physical stores for each digital channel whether it's a mobile storefront, an e-commerce website or a promotion via a microblog.

Lessons from the Leaders: International growth
In 2010, the news was full of stories about fashion empires expanding their online shops into new overseas territories. In 2007, the news was about the retailers compensating for negative growth in the high street with online expansion. History seemed to be repeating itself in 2010 but there with two essential differences. It’s no longer just market leaders such as Next going online: the idea has reached the mainstream, most major brands are now trading online. And online sales are now international - rather than making up for weak high street returns, major brands are seeking to continue growth despite weak domestic returns by taking the brands cross-border to Europe, America and other parts of the world. Zara’s announcement in Q3 2010 was hot on the heels of a similar move from Gap earlier in the summer and a number of prominent retailers like Next and ASOS also growing and expanding overseas.
