‘Mobile influenced £18bn of retail sales in 2013’ – ‘Econsultancy’ Blog
The latest ‘Econsultancy’ blog post is titled “Mobile influenced £18bn of retail sales in 2013”.
Christopher Ratcliff says, “In 2013 the percentage of in-store sales where mobile phones were used as part of the shopping journey stood at 6.8%. This equates to £18bn of sales, a figure 45% up on 2012.
This comes from a recent study by Deloitte Digital, where 2,000 consumers were polled on their smartphone usage in relation to in-store purchasing.
Consumers who used their mobile phones before or during their shopping trip were more likely than the average shopper to make a purchase. Those using a smartphone during a shopping trip were almost twice as likely to make a purchase“.
