Retail in 2019: A Snapshot

You hear the term everywhere: retail apocalypse. But are things as grim as some news reports might lead you to believe?

A look at Business Insider's 2019 list of retail closures paints an ugly picture. In 2019, more than 9,300 stores closed, including all 2,500 of Payless ShoeSource stores, 850 Gymboree stores, all 650 Dress Barn stores, all 520 Charlotte Russe stores, all 520 Fred's stores, 390 Family Dollar stores and many others. Read the full report.

But that's only part of the story. IHL Group's newest report, Retail's Renaissance - True Story of Store Openings/Closings shares that while some brands are closing doors, there are lots of great things happening in retail as well...chains opening stores across many industries and more. 

We're diving into this excellent report on the blog. Check it out!

How Psychographic Data Can Enhance Site Selection

We talk a lot about data on the SiteSeer blog! Data, after all, is what powers the SiteSeer platform and augments your decision making, and there are many data types out there...demographic, mobile location, business and spending, and others.

But psychographic data is a game-changer, giving businesses of all kinds and sizes insight into people's interests and attitudes. In partnership with Synergos Technologies Inc., SiteSeer provides psychographic data based on MRI-Simmons’ Survey of the American Consumer, which collects information on consumer media choices, attitudes and product/service consumption.
