Brief
To determine the market opportunity for the service centres in retail tool sales and then build out the AUSREO service centres' retail proposition.
Initially addressing the core question:
- Are we retailers?
- What are the gaps to streamline and build our differentiators?
Strategy
- Consumer insights study with Tradies was used to determine core target markets present and future.
- All facets of behaviour and their profiles were linked to usage, competitors, and path to purchase.
- Business diagnostics across the network to assess capability, culture, and preparedness - including executive interviews through to in-store visits.
Success
- Building retail capability working with the Ausreo senior team.
- Determining the service centre retail differentiator and proposition.
- Creating a “one-stop” AusReo retail offer to tradespeople – including work in product range / layout of centres / customer navigation / staff sales training.
- Recommending and assisting with implementation of a digital, mobile commerce-led strategy for customers.
