PROJECT: HAMLEY’S

Your Answer
2. Type of digital innovation and its justification.
Your Answer One of the innovative solutions which Hamleys can take up to counter
the challenges which pandemic posed is to go create a 3D-Online store
with
presence of virtual assistants who can help the customers to tour the
virtual store and help the customers to buy the products based on your
requirements.
This concept has been used by multiple car-showrooms and hi-tech
automobile companies who provide a fully virtual tour of their stores as
well as their products. This enabled the companies to reach to much
wider audience as compared to their traditional offline reach.
This concept has not been used by any of the current competitors of
hamleys and this will also enable hamleys to bring a similar experience
to their customers which they offer offline at their retail stores, without
the need of customers to visit the stores physically. In this manner,
customers will be able to stay connected with Hamleys and enjoy the
experiential buying with sufficient safety.
This could be a disruptive innovation as this technology will be first of
its kind in the toys market and it will be an entirely new business model
which will be seen for the first time by a toy brand.
