When talking about innovation, many people say it’s about putting people in a room and brainstorming. That is farthest from the truth. Innovation, in some way, has to do with the platform. It has to have a framework. The Winnovator Canvas is practically the same canvas we’ve been using, as it sets the framework for where innovation happens. It’s not just about thinking about ideas, but about testing agility, speed, and so many other things. |

You know what they say - ‘Necessity is the mother of all invention’. And so ConceptStore happened at a time where all the retailers could not operate because they were located in malls. We had to quickly come up with a way to provide products to our customers despite the pandemic. Since everyone was going online, we figured that it’s about time we do the same. So we set up ConceptStore and at the start we tell you, it was so hard because we really and still are, a successful brick-and-mortar business, for over 60 years. And to do something that is not in the DNA of the company, you are really taking people out of their comfort zone. All of a sudden, everything that we learned, we needed to unlearn and come up with newer ways of doing things. |

Sometimes our VIPs are not comfortable transacting online using their credit cards. As much as possible, they would much rather talk to someone they can trust. So we handle those inquiries and listen to them rather than put them in a box and say that they have to follow everything word for word. What we do is listen to them and if they have a requirement, we pivot on how we can accommodate their request. We do all the transactions and deliver it based on their preferences. If they want it within the day then we make sure that they receive it by then. If they want it gift-wrapped, then we accommodate the request. |
