The Challenges
Setting the Stage: Understanding the Retail Landscape Before Adopting AI
A global fashion retailer was struggling with falling conversion rates and rising product returns. Customers complained about poor product recommendations, generic marketing emails, and inconsistent online experiences.
Before implementing TDWS AI, the brand’s success heavily relied on social media promotions, but its e-commerce channels contributed minimally to overall revenue. Inventory inefficiencies and a lack of personalization meant customers often bounced before completing purchases.

- Weak engagement: Marketing campaigns lacked targeting, leading to low CTRs.
- Inventory mismatches: Overstocking in some categories and shortages in others frustrated customers.
Competitive pressure: Competitors were investing heavily in AI personalization.
