We are experiencing significant change in high-street retailing as the world economy slows. This has an inevitable knock-on effect on the UK. Online retailing can help in attracting new customers both locally and overseas. It can also change the profile of your customers. It presents an opportunity to reduce overheads and increase profitability.
E-commerce interim management is the temporary assignment of a proven and experienced online retail specialist to manage transition, crisis, growth or change within your company. It can bridge the gap until a permanent appointment is made. Whatever the reason, this is a situation where e-commerce interim management could prove invaluable.
At short notice you can have experienced people helping you to define strategy, develop online pricing policies, source partners, build a marketing plan and monitor online performance. Whatever your interim needs, Evolve Retail can help.
Some of the benefits our clients have experienced:
1. Speed
We can be on-site in days and productive from day one. We can remove guesswork and immediately deploy proven techniques that help you improve performance.
2. Experience

Unlike management consultants who normally take on a purely advisory role, our team is responsible and accountable for clearly defined and agreed objectives. Weekly reports can be produced detailing actions, achievements and summaries of the key performance indicators and improvement opportunities.
4. Cost saving
Our team can help you speed up the decision making process by bringing proven techniques and assist in selecting partners delivering projects sooner and at a reduced cost. Guess work is removed, saving time and money, utilising our experience with retailers over the past 13 years.

Our team has a breadth of knowledge and experience of the e-commerce industry sufficient to bring valuable insight to a project. With ready access to industry partners and retailers, we can remove the uncertainty from operating a successful online retail business.
6. Skills transfer
In some projects our brief is planned as interim from the beginning. Our objective is to transfer to your employees the skills required to operate your store on a day-to-day basis. Our engagement can start part- or full-time on your premises, moving towards a periodic advisory role reviewing performance and suggesting enhancements.
