Retail Use Cases
2 mins
Dobbin puts what your company knows directly into the hands of the people on the floor. The service standards, the unwritten rules, and what sells and to whom are there the moment someone asks, not filed away at head office.
And it sharpens with every season: what moved, what sat, and where.
GROWTH
Grow Without the Overhead
Galanter & Jones, the studio that invented heated outdoor furniture, hit a growth plateau. Rather than bet the budget on one senior marketing hire, they ran three fractional specialists through Dobbin, which held how the founders think. Revenue grew 50% year over year in H2, with fixed marketing costs down 82%.

Put the right product in the window | A furniture brand was picking window pieces off company-wide bestsellers, which didn't always win locally. Dobbin read the store's own sales against its local customers and named the hero piece. The window reflected who shopped there, not who shopped everywhere. |
|---|---|
Train new staff fast | A home goods brand had Dobbin build a training guide for seasonal staff, covering product knowledge, the brand story and service standards. It lived in the knowledge base as a searchable asset rather than a binder no one opened. |
Fix the layout, not the symptoms | Dobbin read a retailer's foot traffic patterns against its sales data and staffing schedule, finding where the layout lost people and where coverage didn't match the busy hours. |
Know who walks in | One store team had Dobbin build customer personas for its specific location, from its own sales data and what the floor staff had observed. Staff learned who they were serving, not who the company serves on average. |
Run promotions that fit the neighborhood | One team had Dobbin draft local promotions and event ideas tailored to a single store's customer base, working from its profile, its seasonal calendar and the brand guidelines. |
