Omnichannel marketing (a multi-channel sales approach to marketing) helps consumers meet the brand in many different forms. Brands that can create an effective “digital disruption” know how to harmonise the shopping experience between the physical environments and digital commerce. This significantly enhances the buyer’s journey, taking them seamlessly from the website or app to the store and vice versa.
