Personalisation and exceeding expectations key

“Please tell us about any examples of an especially memorable shopping experience when buying luxury products in stores.”
‘…They gave us Champagne and made us feel we were
the most important customers. They were warm, polite, unrushed, explained the history of the brand.’
‘Buying a Chanel bracelet on Sloane Street and we were given a pair of cufflinks free for my husband. They knew he was buying an anniversary present and felt he deserved something too. It was a cute gesture.’
‘The staff are always very attentive and polite but in this particular instance, I wanted a handbag that was out of stock. Fear not, they sourced it from another branch, sent it over and provided me with a few refreshmentswhilst I was waiting - fantastic!’
Selfridges, London
‘When my daughters were in their early teens, Tiffany’s in Boston treated them like real customers a brilliant example of 'lifetime view of the customer.’

Key takeaways

2. Stores could tap into many consumers’ desire for leisure experiences.
3. 9 in 10 luxury shoppers have a repertoire of at least a few luxury brands.
4. Quality (78%), heritage (58%) and being a brand to be seen with (55%) are the main ways to build emotional connections with luxury consumers.
5. Almost 1/3 of our sample will pay more than 10% more for sustainable products, but claims must be credibly communicated.
