In the new era of retail, we know that experience is everything. But which retail and direct-to-consumer (DTC) brands are winning customer attention and affection across all stages of the shopping journey? The Brand Experience Awards, presented by RetailX and Retail TouchPoints, were created to spotlight the businesses that are redefining the rules of interaction, engagement and loyalty. They have implemented new tools and strategies in one or several areas of the brand experience, raising the stakes for their competitors and the entire retail industry.
Brand Experience Award winners are implementing new technologies and strategies in one of more of the following areas. Each company/brand can be nominated in up to three (3) categories:
Digital Innovation:
Creating a Cohesive Brand Experience
Pop-Ups, Events, Partnerships & Other Brand Activations
Store Design and Experiential Retail
Marketing Campaigns for the Complete Shopper Journey
Mobile & Social Optimization

& Loyalty
The Convergence of Content & Commerce
Marketplace Strategies & Technologies
Last Mile & Fulfillment Experiences
