I like to focus on the retail experience because it represents the ultimate opportunity to bring together the visual, service, relationship, product, logistical, creative elements and more available to a business to create a one-of-a-kind, memorable and talk-worthy segment of time for customers.
(For additional perspective, see To Get More Business, Design Your Experience For Consumers.)
Good retail experiences have nothing to do with blandness. Rather, they embody a strong point of view (POV) that can't possibly be forgotten or confused with another. They bring your brand to life and keep it alive in people's minds and hearts.
