Back to school preparations are full swing! Whether shopping for pencils, binders, notepads, new clothes, backpacks, or books, it’s important to enter with a plan. Without a list of the must-have gear from your favorite back to school retailers, it’s likely that unnecessary items will slip by the register. Although, customers are not the only ones who need to prepare for back to school shopping season – retailers do, too. Back to school retailers, such as Office Depot, must use creative strategies to lure shoppers into their stores by offering large discounts and promotions, launching new products, and increasing marketing initiatives. This year, consumers are finding that their disposable income is tight due to rising costs, and Office Depot, along with many other large back to school retailers, are doing everything possible to dissuade consumers from shopping at discount stores.
