Retailer Strategies and Smart Home Merchandising

As the smart home industry attempts to cross the chasm—moving from adoption among early adopters to the early majority—brands in the space fervently seek to understand the value propositions that drive product adoption and how to improve perceived product value. Understanding the buyer journey is equally important for industry development.

Retailers lead in the sale of smart home devices. National and local retailers lead online-only retailers in sales of all devices except smart plug/adapter modules, networked security/IP cameras, and smart in-wall outlet/switch or dimmers.
