I think Gemporia's demographic may be changing and much more aimed at a younger more tech savvy market than previously, hence the change in product strategy and there will always be consumers who will rightly or wrongly go for what they are familiar with and where they have received good service and products rather than take a risk on bargain basement prices. I doubt the vast majority of Gemporia customers are not making online purchases and researching purchases.This is simply taking advantage of those unfamiliar with the internet and online shopping.
But it's hardly a plan for growth. The die hard offline only shoppers are either dying off or slowly having to get to grips with the internet as more and more stuff (banking, paying bills, claiming benefits etc) becomes online only.
So what does Gemporia plan to do when their viewers are all able to do their research and their own price comparisons as a matter of course?
It's so short sighted
