Consumers are more connected to data than ever. They have the ability to research any product they want at any time of the day and virtually just about anywhere there is a signal. The power of information changes behaviors as well as expectations and a recent report by Displaydata confirms that there is a dynamic shift in how consumers in the US look at omnichannel shopping.

The email team needs to ensure that there are some alignment with offline channels if even to test incremental lift or a new attribution model around email’s influence to the offline world.
