Thanks to Matt Hullfish, national sales director at Casafina, for sharing this good news about brick-and-mortar stores:
Excerpt:
Retailers with brick-and-mortar and e-commerce operations continue to benefit from having both, according to a recent study from the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC).
...The average consumer makes 2.1 transactions in-store with that same retailer within 15 days. Similarly, following an in-store transaction, the average consumer makes 1.3 online transactions with the same retailer within 15 days.
In terms of dollars, the $100 online transaction leads to an additional spend of $131 by consumers, while the $100 in-store purchase leads to an additional spend of $167 online.
ICSC officials noted that the physical and digital purchase act as extensions of each other and consumers spent continuously at both, notably within a 15-day period.
