"If you make the customer unhappy in the physical world, they might each tell six friends. If you make customers unhappy on the Internet, they can each tell 6000 friends." Jeff Bezos
How technology has changed the way we shop? Hamtaro started with a simple question: how can we make online shopping better?
Long ago that you only watched live video on television, using a limited set of broadcast channels. Gone are the days of going to malls, braving crowds, and walking through aisles for hours trying to find what we want. These steps have been replaced by a simple, fast, and convenient process that everyone can accomplish with access to the internet. Now, we have live, or near-live, or on-demand moving pictures coming at us from everywhere. Not just TVs but phones, tablets and computers On-demand and livestreamed video can be found on app. Video is the centerpiece of how content and information are consumed - accounts for more than 80% of all IP traffic. COVID-19 resulting in shifts of consumer and business behavior.
Who are our shoppers? Heads of families: They can use Hamtaro Shopping for precise and real-time shopping without leaving the house. Individual shoppers: They can use Hamtaro Shopping to buy and inspect items in-store before making their final purchase.
Life Before Online Shopping Having to deal with traffic and parking at grocery stores and malls People needed to go to physical stores to make purchases. Consumers had to line up and wait for a cashier to ring up their purchases one by one. Spending hours picking out the right piece of item People with accessibility and mobility issues can't shop easily. Weaving through big crowds and lining up to pay for your purchase Discount coupons were printouts purchased from physical stores. Consumers had to go through racks and racks of clothing to find what they need. People can only buy items available locally.
Life With Online Shopping Being able to save time as it only takes a few clicks to visit online shops People can shop for their needs in the convenience of their homes. Discount coupons are shorter, consisting of alphanumeric characters or QR codes Looking for items is made more accessible by well-designed online shops Job opportunities in delivery and fulfillment centers have increased. Visual-search technology (and timeless search bars) can immediately pull up results and speed up the selection and checkout process. Paying for purchases using easier and safer means without having to use cash People can buy from stores all over the world. Self-checkout lanes in physical stores and quick checkout features in online shops allow for a faster, smoother shopping experience.
