1. Five AI-smart Technologies That Will Transform This Holiday Season

With the emergence of AI, brands can create chatbots that engage in human-like conversations and are intelligent, enhancing customers’ buying experiences. “Every retail brand has embraced generative AI,” says Nelson Haung, senior director of product marketing at Freshworks. AI is poised to revolutionize multiple functions in e-commerce, fashion, and groceries, among others. 

Here are five business functions in retail where AI will have a significant impact this holiday season:

1.1. Smart inventory management 

As the holiday season rush has begun, retailers are harnessing the power of AI-driven predictive analytics to optimize inventory management. By analyzing past trends and current market demands, AI aids in anticipating popular holiday products, ensuring shelves are stocked with in-demand items, and minimizing the risks of stockouts. This not only enhances customer satisfaction but also maximizes sales opportunities.

1.2. Personalized shopping experiences

AI-powered recommendation systems play an important role in personalized shopping experiences for customers. So, during this holiday season, retailers are leveraging these systems to suggest personalized gifts, discounts, ideas, and promotions based on individual preferences. This not only boosts customer engagement but also increases the likelihood of successful conversions, contributing significantly to holiday revenue.

1.3. Efficient customer support with chatbots

The holiday season often brings an influx of customer queries and support requests. AI-driven chatbots step in to streamline customer support processes, providing instinctive responses to frequently asked questions. These virtual assistants enhance efficiency, reduce repose time, and ensure a positive customer experience even during peak holiday hours, contributing to overall customer satisfaction.
