Just How Good Were Holiday Sales At Retail?

February 13, 2017 by morganm

The latest installment of TWICE’s Executive Retail Roundtable, in which we gather some of the best and the brightest in tech retail to address the state of the industry, revealed an optimism about 2017 and the prospects for such categories as Ultra HD TV, connected home and virtual and augmented reality systems. Join our deep dive into the challenges facing the retail business today:

TWICE: Let’s start with the holidays, and you in particular Laura, because Amazon described it as the best holiday season in the company’s history. How much of that can you take credit for?
Laura Orvidas, CE VP, Amazon: All of it — my own holiday shopping contributed. [Laughter.]

We had a great holiday season. A lot of our success was buoyed by Echo and the other Amazon devices. We saw a lot of customers come and interact on a variety of our products.

TWICE: “Millions sold” was Amazon’s official statement, but do you have any hard numbers on the Alexa devices?
Orvidas: Nine times our previous holiday season.

Mobile shopping was also very hot. Over 72 percent of Amazon customers worldwide shopped using their mobile devices, and on Cyber Monday alone customers purchased 46 electronic items per second on a mobile device.

How Alexa And Home Networking Are Stirring Up The Smart Home (And Other Holiday Insights From Top Retail Execs)

February 13, 2017 by morganm

Get in the Game: An eSports Primer for CE Retailers

January 24, 2017 by morganm

By Rob Stott

Quick! What comes to mind when you hear the word eSports?

If you’re like most of the “outsiders,” you likely paint a picture of someone sitting in bed (or his parents’ basement) munching on a bag of Doritos with a funny looking headset on, lights off, sitting inches away from his computer monitor.

That image would not be entirely false, but it’s a gross underrepresentation of an industry that is booming, has broad appeal, and could come to define the future of consumer electronics retailing.

Let’s forget about the retail side of things for a second, though, and focus only on the market itself. Who (or what?) is an eSports athlete? How much money is floating around in sponsorship dollars, prize pools, and more? Is the eSports industry really big enough for you, the retailer, to care about?

A good place to start is getting a solid understanding around what eSports actually is.

“Esports (electronic sports) is professional computer gaming,” the World eSports Association (WESA) said in an interview with Dealerscope. “Athletes from around the world participate in online and offline tournaments against each other. The games are broadcast and streamed in numerous languages, allowing fans all over the globe to follow the action live on a regular basis.”

New Age: ‘Show Me’ Millennials, Female Buyers Will Still Rule in 2017

January 10, 2017 by morganm

By New Age Electronics President Fred Towns’ account, 2017, for the foreseeable future, is going to be about meeting growing “show me” expectations of both Millennials and female buyers – two demographics that are “more powerful than ever,” and that helped holiday sales to move forward and spike, after a slightly “slowed down” start fueled by concerns in the run-up to the 2016 election.
