Welcome to The ‘Do It For Me Economy’
With human capabilities being increasingly augmented by artificial intelligence, it’s clear that retail is currently and will continue to undergo paradigm shifts, changing the way we shop forever. The brands that stand out and stay ahead of the curve are those who embrace AI, and optimise for the attention of AI, not just humans. They’re optimising for visibility and performance not only in front of human eyes, but within machine-led decision cycles.
Decisions now aren’t just influenced by AI, they are AI.
We are seeing a new retail channel emerge whereby the customer of the future won’t just be a person scrolling, but an intelligent assistant. In the near future personal and business agents will be working alongside us to automate the more transactional elements of retail.
Do It For Me Retail changes everything. It’s a shift that reimagines loyalty and relevance. Discovery becomes data-led. Brand value is assessed by machine logic. Retailers must think like systems engineers as much as storytellers.
And this just means that physical retail experiences will become all the more personalised, to craft that lasting connection with consumers.
The future of retail isn’t just about selling to people, it’s about building systems that think for them, shop for them, and increasingly, decide for them.
We sat down this week to explore our thoughts on how the retail world is changing, and what brands need to do to move quickly, and not get left behind.
