Environics Analytics (EA) recently partnered with Lowe\u2019s Canada to take an in-depth look at the outcomes of a few of their most recent digital promotions. In this session, EA will examine the digital savviness of Lowe\u2019s Canada\u2019s customers to understand how responsive they are to online promotions and will measure the impact on Lowe\u2019s Canada\u2019s website and a specific store location, comparing pre-, during- and post-visit counts and segments. Discover how this analysis is providing Lowe\u2019s Canada with a more complete understanding of which customers segments and promotions drove in-store traffic and whether or not their digital promotions were reaching their key client segments.<\/p>\n                        <\/div>\n\n                        <!-- Session sponsors -->\n                                                      <div><p><strong>Sponsored by:<\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n                                 <div class=\"sponsors row\">\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sponsor-img\" src=\"https:\/\/events.retailcouncil.org\/dtl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2022\/03\/Environics-Analytics-Logo-Large-scaled.jpg\" \/>   <\/div>\n                                      <\/div>\n                  <!-- Session speakers -->\n                                       <div class=\"row\">\n                        <p><strong>Speaking:<\/strong><\/p>\n                        <div class=\"row\" style=\"gap: 40px;\">\n                              \n<div class=\"speaker  \">\n   <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"speaker-img\" src=\"https:\/\/events.retailcouncil.org\/dtl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2022\/04\/Catherine-Laporte-web.jpg\">\n   <div class=\"speaker-info \">\n      <p class=\"speaker-name \">Catherine Laporte<\/p>\n      <p class=\"speaker-job \">Vice President, Marketing <\/p>\n      <p class=\"speaker-company \">Lowe\u2019s Canada <\/p>\n   <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n                                                                  \n<div class=\"speaker  \">\n   <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"speaker-img\" src=\"https:\/\/events.retailcouncil.org\/dtl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2022\/04\/Michael-Scida-web.jpg\">\n   <div class=\"speaker-info \">\n      <p class=\"speaker-name \">Michael Scida<\/p>\n      <p class=\"speaker-job \">Director, Retail Business Development<\/p>\n      <p class=\"speaker-company \">Environics Analytics <\/p>\n   <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n                                                                                          <\/div>\n                     <\/div> \n                              <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"session-container__internal\">\n<!--- Session item --->\n<a class=\"open-post-loop-popup pointer session concurrent-session\" id=\"session-3787\">\n   <div class=\"session-box\">\n      <p class=\"session-title\">More than eCommerce: The Path to Digital Growth<\/p>\n      <!-- <p class=\"session-location\"><\/p> -->\n              <div class=\"session-track hidden\"><\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"speaker-description\">\n            <div class=\"sponsors row\">\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sponsor-img\" src=\"https:\/\/events.retailcouncil.org\/dtl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2022\/04\/Thinkmax_Logo_noir.png\" \/>   <\/div>\n                          <\/div> <!-- close .speaker-description -->\n   <\/div> <!-- close .session-box -->\n<\/a>\n<!-- Session popup -- only render if session has a description -->\n<div class=\"popup custom\">\n      <div class=\"popup-card\">\n            <i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fas fa-times close-popup pointer\"><\/i>\n            <div class=\"session-popup-header\">\n                  <span class=\"inline-block col-1\">\n                        <h4 class=\"primary-color no-margin\">More than eCommerce: The Path to Digital Growth<\/h4>\n                  <\/span>\n                  <span class=\"inline-block col-2\">\n                        <p class=\"no-margin\">Day 2 \u2013 June 1, 2022<\/p>\n                        <p class=\"no-margin\"><strong>11:55 AM - 12:40 PM EST<\/strong><\/p>\n                  <\/span>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"session-popup-content flex row\">\n                  <div class=\"\">\n                        <!-- Session description -->\n                        <div class=\"session-desc\">\n                              \n<p>Re-platforming existing commerce solutions in the past two years has been critical for many retailers seeking to fortify and improve their customer experience while simplifying and unifying digital operations.

Most Quebecers come from a French culture, live in an English society and have an American lifestyle. Understanding their hybrid nature is your path to success in la belle province.
