The Ultimate Guide to Omnichannel
2025 edition
Overview
With the rise of additional routes to market beyond the bricks and mortar store has emerged the concept of the omnichannel business strategy. As implied by ‘omni’ (all) and ‘channel’, the approach acknowledges and uses all channels through which or by which customers may be reached, whether physical or digital. Omnichannel is frequently used in the context of retail, covering channels such as mobile (TXT), web chat and chatbots, Augmented and Virtual Reality, mobile apps, telephone, and more; however, the concept is equally applicable in the delivery of government services, in corporate contact centres, and in healthcare.
