Our Point of View

Hardware retailers need a digital boost. In recent years, it’s become clear that businesses in the space can’t meet modern business demands if constrained by limited online functionality and data silos. The hardware retail industry needs modern-day tools to succeed — and without fully embracing digital transformation, retailers may struggle to address customer needs, combat supply chain issues, or attract a digitally-savvy, experientially-attuned customer base.

In this white paper, Gerent addresses how hardware retailers can better meet the demands of a modern market by expanding their digital presence and centralizing their data.

Episode 40: Building a Better Order Management Process: How Salesforce Helps Retailers Innovate & Win

There isn’t just one way to shop anymore – which presents a unique challenge for retailers. After all, how do you build a buying experience that offers the same level of personal care for a customer, regardless of whether they’re shopping in-store, online, or via an app? That’s where Salesforce comes in: by leveraging Salesforce’s data-driven capabilities, backed by the power of AI, retailers can overhaul every aspect of the order management experience, from buying to fulfillment to returns. The end result? Deeper relationships with customers, greater wallet share, and a true competitive advantage.
