Context
Titan in India is a multibillion-dollar retail powerhouse that sells jewellery, eyewear, precision engineering components (through a separate subsidiary), and handwoven saris, In an interview with Titan’s CEO, Bhaskar Bhat, Bhat shared the “going digital” experience of Titan: “For us, the digitization of the company is both external and internal. The former is the consumers’ interface with the company — websites, online promotions, social networks like Instagram and Facebook — while the latter is the transactions with the company, the way people make actual purchases. The jury is still out on that because, for us, the physical space still plays a large role. We are, therefore, betting on omnichannel as the safest approach, and that is playing out pretty well in eyewear, and to some extent, watches.” (strategy+business) Available at: https://www.strategy-business.com/article/Innovating-in-traditional-retail-markets?gko=bd304&utm_source=itw&utm_medium=itw20200303&utm_campaign=resp issued on 22 January 2020.
The world of retail has been subject to a number of significant transformations over the last decade; new competitive forces, economic and social changes, rapid technological advancements and changing consumer behaviors have been the death knell of many long-established retailers. This has meant that in order to survive, retailers have been faced with the challenges of transforming their marketing strategies and practices. Some but not all organizations, like Titan, have transformed their marketing practices and survived the challenges.
