We’re bouncing from different devices or platforms every day – whether shopping on a retail website on our laptops, watching connected TV in our living rooms or listening to a podcast on our phones.

As such, the online shopper journey is no longer linear. Omni-channel demands an ongoing cycle of touchpoints, providing continuous inspiration and exposure for customers.
