Frequently asked questions.

What is retail marketing?

Retail marketing can include everything from promotional displays and store signage to digital campaigns that bridge online and offline experiences. It can be abstract and holistic, so agencies will often tailor their services to client goals — potentially leveraging skills that range from SEO and search marketing, to event management and influencer marketing, for incredibly custom + highly impactful campaigns.  

How are retail campaigns typically developed?

Retail campaigns usually begin with a specific objective (i.e. boosting seasonal sales, launching a product, increasing store visits). From there, an agency will build concepts that work across in-store touch points — shelf displays, windows, POS materials — and often integrate digital components like QR codes, mobile tie-ins or influencer-driven amplification to maximize visibility and impact.

Can retail marketing be integrated with broader campaigns?

Yes! The most effective retail marketing is integrated with digital, social and brand campaigns. This ensures a seamless brand experience from the moment someone sees an online ad to the point they interact with your product or team in-store.

What industries are best to invest in retail marketing?

Retail marketing is vital across many sectors — especially apparel, consumer packaged goods, electronics, food & beverage, beauty and home goods. Each category has its own nuances, but the common goal is to win attention and drive purchase decisions in a crowded market.
