Introducing MashUp™
We are a global consultancy specialising in customer experience
strategy and design
19 SEPTEMBER 2014THE SHOPPER ENVIRONMENT MASTERCLASS © MASH UP™ 2014PAGE 6
Our difference
We’re a consultancy not an agency. No two solutions are the same. Our lean team of brand, retail and digital strategists and designers
assembles a purpose-built team of specialists for each project. The solution is right for you not our model.
We’ve banned the word ‘consumer’. Customers are people, consumers are numbers.
To tap into human solutions, we leave ‘consumers’ behind with the industrial age of production/consumption.
We put customers’ needs first. MashUp™ sees the world through your customers’ eyes.
By understanding what your customers really want, we help convert consumers into brand loyalists.
Our thinking is not constrained by the delivery method,
we stay focused on the solution. As channel agnostics, we don’t think in terms of advertising, or websites, or store design.
As a cross-disciplinary team, we see the world from multiple perspectives. Every opportunity is maximised to create sector-defining experiences.
Our team of global experts have decades of experience. Retail knows no boundaries, and nor do we.
Our picture is as broad as your business’ potential, and your customer’s reach. We have offices in Sydney, Singapore, London and Chicago.
We are pioneering customer experience
to give our clients a competitive edge. Our clients are ahead-of-the curven and will dominate and own customer experience ahead of competitors.
What is customer experience?

Customer experience is so much more than customer service. It’s the total experience a customer has when they interact
with a brand, it’s physical spaces, and it’s virtual ecosystem.

Customer experience
This unique MashUp is the space we operate in. It’s a space that didn’t exist 5 years ago.
Customer experience is where the retail battle for supremacy will be fought and won.

Customer experience
Customer experience puts your customer at the heart of your business,
which is precisely where they expect to be.

Why customer experience matters
We have entered the age of the customer.
“Customer behaviour has changed more in the last 5 years than in the previous 50 years”
Faith Popcorn, Futurist

The forces of change
1. Societal change The post-industrial age has seen a paradigm shift of power from institutions to people. People are delivering solutions where corporations and governments have failed them.
It’s a community revolution.

Societal change
As they search for meaning, customers want to connect
with like-minded brands

The forces of change
2. Technological change Technology has connected people, given them a voice,
and the inclination to use it. People want input. The opinions of people will literally make or break businesses.
It is a new organising force and the ultimate tool for democracy.
19 SEPTEMBER 2014THE SHOPPER ENVIRONMENT MASTERCLASS © MASH UP™ 2014PAGE 17
Technological change
People and businesses are evaluated by their standing
on social media
19 SEPTEMBER 2014THE SHOPPER ENVIRONMENT MASTERCLASS © MASH UP™ 2014PAGE 18
3. Market changes Competition has never been fiercer with e-commerce startups
and international players all taking share of market. There has never been less differentiation between products.
It’s survival of the fittest.

Market changes
Customers have discovered their spending is power
What does this mean for retailers?
19 SEPTEMBER 2014THE SHOPPER ENVIRONMENT MASTERCLASS © MASH UP™ 2014PAGE 21
Why experience matters
With so many products competing for attention, customers’ reason-to-buy is not only product based.
The decision-to-buy is based on everything around a product.
19 SEPTEMBER 2014THE SHOPPER ENVIRONMENT MASTERCLASS © MASH UP™ 2014PAGE 22
Paradigm shift
Retail needs to shift from transactional to emotional

Your reality
Your product is distributed through a value-driven retail environment
19 SEPTEMBER 2014THE SHOPPER ENVIRONMENT MASTERCLASS © MASH UP™ 2014PAGE 35
Value-driven retail environment
Customers are shifting away from value-propositions. The businesses that are ranking highly in customer experience ratings are not about value.
People want more from a retail experience than value alone. How are your distributors responding to this shift?
Your brand positioning is impacted by your distribution. Seeing your brand in a value context creates an impact on the way customers understand your brand.
How can you let your customers have a real sense of your brand?
Your product attributes are communicated by staff you have no contact with. The key vehicle for information is staff you can’t manage.
They will be communicating their own personal perspectives. How can you manage the way information is disseminated?
You are competing with own / lo brand. With no way to communicate brand attributes, you are competing on price, against inferior product.
How can you put the value back into your product?
Can information compete with SKUs. How can a volume retailer accept floorspace being given to informational content?
In a value-driven superstore, all artisinal attributes are lost. A large scale environment with a broad network means the uniqueness of hardware is lost.
How can we tap into the surge of appeal for all things artisanal?
