How Colors Can Influence Shoppers
For retailers, selling is an art, one of persuasion! While there are many factors that influence what consumers purchase, the colors you choose in your retail store can have one of the biggest impacts on consumers’ behaviour. Color influences mood, feelings and purchasing habits for most consumers and it is not just confined to the merchandise.
