E-commerce companies are aggressively implementing innovative methods of marketing their product offerings using tools like digital marketing, internet of things (IoT)and artificial intelligence to name a few. This paper focuses on outlining the innovative ways of marketing that the E-Commerce sector implements in orders to increase their customer base and aims at determining the future scope of this area. A conceptual comparative study of Amazon and Flipkart helps to determine which marketing strategies are more appealing and beneficial for both the customers and companies point of view.

The purpose of the activity is to implement a competitive advantage strategy in the retail business and assistance in making product packaging in increasing retail business sales in the Old Tangerang market. PKM activity is an inspiration from the many retail stores that are not able to increase sales, which is due to competitive advantage strategies that have not been carried out optimally. Given the retail strategy in building a competitive advantage is very necessary for a retailer. The location of the traditional market was chosen because it still needs help from various parties. Including from educational institutions. For this activity partners were chosen because of limited competitive advantage and limited knowledge of the strategy of excellence. In addition, the limitations of partners to build excellence, in assessing internal and external factors in the business environment through SWOT, are indispensable to assist retailers in assessing business excellence. Furthermore, to improve product sales value, better product packaging is needed, this has not been done by partners. The method offered in this activity is the provision of knowledge of retail business excellence strategies, SWOT strategies and packaging design in the form of FGDs, socialization and training. While the assistance is done by making product packaging that is more environmentally friendly. Through this activity will help overcome the problems of partners in doing business better than competitors. Thus the hope can help partners in increasing sales.ABSTRAK:Tujuan kegiatan adalah mengimplementasikan strategi keunggulan bersaing usaha ritel dan pendampingan membuat pengemasan produk dalam meninggkatkan penjualan Usaha Ritel di pasar Lama Tangerang. Kegiatan PKM merupakan inspirasi dari banyaknya toko ritel yang tidak mampu meningkatkan penjulan, yang dikarenakan strategi keunggulan bersaing yang belum dilakukan secara optimal. Mengingat strategi eceran dalam membangun keunggulan bersaing sangatlah diperlukan bagi seorang pengecer. Dipilih lokasi pasar tradisional karena masih sangat membutuhkan bantuan dari berbagai pihak. Termasuk dari lembaga pendidikan. Untuk kegiatn ini mitra yang dipilih karena masih lemahnya keunggulan bersaing, lemahnya pengetahuan akan strategi keunggulan. Selain itu keterbatasan mitra membangun keunggulan, dalam menilai faktor internal dan eksternal di lingkungan usaha melalui SWOT, yang sangat diperlukan untuk membantu peritel dalam menilai keunggulan usaha. Selanjutnya untuk meningkatkan nilai jual produk diperlukan kemasan produk yang lebih baik, hal ini belum dilakukan mitra. Metode yang ditawarkan dalam kegiatan ini adalah pemberian pengetahuan akan strategi keunggulan usaha ritel, strategi SWOT dan desain kemasan dalam bentuk FGD, sosialisasi dan pelatihan. Sedangkan pendampingan dilakukan dengan membuat kemasan produk yang lebih ramah lingkungan. Melalui kegiatan ini akan membantu mengatasi persoalan mitra dalam melakukan usaha secara lebih baik dibandingkan pesaing. Dengan demikian harapannya dapat membantu mitra dalam meningkatkan penjualan

To compete successfully in today’s retail business arena, senior management are often demanding fast and responsive Information Systems that enable the company not only to manage its operations but to provide on-the-fly performance measurement through a variety of tools. Use of (ERP) systems have been slow in responding to these needs, despite the wealth of the internally generated business databases and reports as a consequence of functional integration. The specific nature and demands by those senior management staff require the congregation of many external data elements and use data mining techniques to provide fast discovery of performance slippages or changes in the business environment. Data Warehousing and Business Intelligence (BI) applications, evolved during the past few decades, have been implemented to respond to these needs.

This study compares client perceptions of the global in-store environment applied to different retail store formats. Literature has shown that certain store attributes are important strategic differentiation tools for grocery retailers. A retail atmosphere can lead to success or failure of a business. Previous studies have neglected the current trend to the coexistence of different retail formats, under different brands but within the same organization. In these cases, a multi-banner company needs to customize the atmosphere to its customers in order to gain attention. This research is about the influence of the store format on the servicescape of the grocery retail stores. A survey was conducted of 302 hyper and supermarket customers. A range of atmospherics variables were considered, including some less studied, such as temperature and cleanliness. The results show that all the dependent variables are sensitive to store format, except cleanliness.

Researches over the years have posited that most of the purchasing decisions made by shoppers are unplanned and mostly made inside the store. Every year retailers spend huge amount on in-store promotion and store environment to gain consumers' attention and stimulate them for such impulsive purchasing. The dominant impact of unplanned purchasing behaviour advocates its comprehensive understanding in retail business. Inability of marketers to accurately forecast this unplanned shopping leads to situations of either over-stocking or under-stocking of inventories, causing increased cost of holding inventory or huge loss of customers respectively. In this research, accuracy in predicting impulse buying behavior using six modeling techniques, utilizing R-3.2.1 as a statistical tool, is tested with data drawn from two Indian metropolitan cities. The main objective is to analyze the relationship between independent variables (influencing factors) and impulsive buying, and comparing the effectiveness of these six modelling techniques. The discriminative ability evidences that forecasting performance of logistic regression is superior to all other techniques in terms of predicting power. The findings of the study offer a number of implications for retailers and marketers. The managerial implications of the study along with scope of further research have been addressed.
