1. Introduction to the innovation
The innovation that is planned by the company is dependent on the identification of the
problems that are faced by the customers while making a buy of the apparel as per their
preferences. The differences in the functioning of the organization are dependent on the change
in the customer preferences and the manner in which the needs of the customers can be
supported by the business. Most of the time, the customers feel reluctant to go round the retail
stores searching for the preferred apparel. The sale of the organization is often compromised
through the reluctance of the customers to go round the stores or scroll down the virtual apps in
search of their favourite brands or designs. Therefore, the company will be devising a technology
that will assist the customers to find their preferred products in one go. The creation of virtual
trial rooms is aimed at helping the customers to come across the most preferred outfit that fits
the personality of the person. The virtual trial rooms have helped in coping up with the
expectations of the customers in the market.
The innovation will be helping the organization to bring in changes in the systems and
the functioning of the business as per the identification of the needs of the customers in the
market. The continuous innovation through the identification of the needs of the customers will
be helping the organization to bring in changes in the situation of the business while operating in
the Australian markets. It will be helping the organization to gain sustenance and thereby grow
beyond the borders.
