5 Proven Ways Wishibam Transforms Your Business into an Omnichannel Winner in Just 6 Weeks
Reading time: 8 minutes
In a world where e-commerce is accelerating at breakneck speed (+13.8% in 2023, FEVAD) and digital giants dominate, brick-and-mortar retailers face a crucial dilemma: how to swiftly and effectively embrace omnichannel commerce—without compromising their identity or investing millions?
Wishibam provides a pragmatic, sovereignty-respecting answer, proven across more than 150 territories in France and Europe. Below, discover exactly how your business can start reaping omnichannel benefits in a matter of weeks—not months.
A Sovereign Solution to Pressing Omnichannel Retail Challenges
Physical Retail Under Digital Pressure: Why Omnichannel Is No Longer Optional
The storm facing physical retail has never been more intense. According to Salesforce (2024), 73% of consumers now expect a seamless experience between stores and online commerce. The days when a customer’s journey was straightforward are over.
Today’s customer hops fluidly between:
- Smartphones
- Physical stores
- Desktop e-commerce
And this is not just a passing trend. The United Commerce Observatory (2023) notes that 65% of French consumers use at least two channels in a single purchase journey. Omnichannel isn’t an option—it’s an outright necessity.
“Customers ask if I’m online before they even step through my store door. This is today’s reality.”
Yet, many hesitate: endless technical projects, high costs, and fear of losing their unique character often stand in the way.
Wishibam: The Strategic Choice for Sovereign and Agile Digitalization
Wishibam steps in with a clear difference:
- 100% French, European-hosted, GDPR-native.
- Specifically designed for city centers, property companies, and local retailers.
It’s not about forcing a generic solution onto retail. Wishibam’s DNA is rooted in proximity commerce and the real needs of merchants.
Take Pau, for instance: we launched a territorial marketplace in under two months. Local merchants saw over 15% additional revenue—without a digital revolution or upheaval of daily routines.
Digitalization shouldn’t be an obstacle course; it should accelerate what merchants already do best—sell and advise.
Ready-to-Use Technology Designed for Speed and Simplicity
Deployment in Weeks, Not Months
“When I was told our marketplace would be operational in 6 weeks, I could hardly believe it. Yet that’s exactly what happened.”
This isn’t an exception—but standard at Wishibam.
- Deployment in 6 to 8 weeks (vs. 12–18 months in the industry)
- Ultra-efficient onboarding and standardized, customizable processes
Our platform connects seamlessly to over 30 ERPs, CRMs, and inventory solutions—even with niche or legacy systems. Technical hurdles? Almost non-existent.
We value pragmatism: merchants launch with a minimum viable product and enrich their catalog as they go. Merchants can be online—earning revenue—before product listings are perfect.
A Seamless, Unified Customer Experience Across All Channels
Omnichannel is about more than “store + website.” It’s about delivering a truly frictionless experience:
- Click & Collect—Native integration, real-time notifications
- E-reservation—Reserve online, try in-store
- Local delivery—Set up in moments, with express options
Wishibam’s merchant interface is uniquely accessible: if you can use a smartphone, you can manage your Wishibam store. No need for lengthy training or digital hires.
“With Wishibam, I manage my online sales between customers, from my phone. It’s as simple as posting on Instagram.”
Result? 85%+ merchant adoption rate, compared to 60% industry average.
