How To Create Effective In-Store Retail Displays?


1. Make In-Store Displays Interactive 
Unless you're a museum or high-end jewelry store, there's no reason your customers can't experience your products with all their senses.  Make your presentation interactive to really engage people.  Take a toy sample, including a fabric sample, and get the tester to ready for the demonstration.  If you have doubts about where to put your goods, just look at every Apple store.  They attract curious customers who want to interact with their devices, making their stores almost irresistible to techies and non-techies alike.  

2. Utilize Cross Merchandising  
Presenting your product as a set or matching deal is both visually appealing and fills the space in a cohesive way. It's also an excellent upsell tool.  Cross-marketing also appeals to those with a taste for brand loyalty.  For example, if you're running a market or grocery store, you might want to showcase a granola bar so that snack fans can try new flavors!  

3. Supplement With Instructions When Necessary
Just as text can be a great tool for window displays, instructions, or product descriptions.  It can be a great addition to in-store displays.  Curious if you should include any informational aspects in your presentation?  A good indicator is whether the product you're presenting has a lot of common questions about it. By anticipating problems and needs, you satisfy the curiosity of all onlookers.  Without it, they might be interested in the display but not motivated to buy because they don't have enough information.  

4. Use Technology In Your Displays  
A growing trend in retail is to integrate technology into in-store displays. Video screens and tablets are the most popular. A good way to combine technology and marketing on displays is to document your retail business and create a display-specific keyword.  Shoppers who are interested in the products can text to your number in the keyword and immediately receive coupons or discounts for the goods/services. Not only does this boost sales, but it also gives you the opportunity to follow up with that customer and offer more promotions of interest in the future!
