A smiling woman talks on a cell phone while her hand rests on an open laptop. She's standing inside a cluttered store.

Are your retail sales lagging? You might need to revitalize your store’s interior and exterior. A makeover could be the key to driving fresh foot traffic. From updating the layout to creating eye-catching signage, use these tips to attract more customers by conducting a retail store makeover.

Modernize the Layout

If you learn how to create an effective layout for your retail store, you can improve your customer flow and ultimately increase sales.

  • Place popular or eye-catching items at key entrances or the end of aisles to draw attention and encourage browsing.
  • Group similar items together to make the shopping experience intuitive and enjoyable.
  • Keep the front of the store clean and inviting with minimal clutter. Shoppers form their initial impressions in the first five to ten feet of the store, so make sure it’s clean.
  • Position high-margin products at eye level where customers most notice them.

Upgrade Interior and Exterior Signage

The impact of large-scale signage on businesses is substantial. Signage is one of the simplest yet most effective tools to grab attention and communicate your brand or values. Large-scale signage—whether it’s window displays, in-store banners, or outdoor signs—offers an excellent opportunity to attract passersby and keep customers informed.

Invest in high-quality materials and bold designs to make a visual statement. Consider using LED signs, banners, or window decals to highlight promotions and new arrivals.

Fix the Lighting

Lighting is a critical aspect of visual merchandising. It sets the mood, enhances product visibility, and creates a welcoming atmosphere for customers.

Try different types of lighting to create a dynamic and visually appealing space. This could include track lighting to highlight specific products and ambient lighting for a warm, inviting ambience.

Use Color Psychology

Every color has a specific psychological effect, which can influence people’s moods and behaviors. Use this knowledge to your advantage when designing your visual merchandising displays.

Warm colors like red, orange, and yellow can evoke excitement and hunger. These hues are popular in food retail to entice customers and stimulate their appetites.

Cool colors such as blue, green, and purple have a calming effect. They are common in fashion retail to create a serene atmosphere for shoppers.

Use Music To Set the Mood

The right playlist can subtly influence customers. Choose music that creates an atmosphere that complements the aesthetic of your store. For example, soft jazz or classical music may work well for a high-end fashion store, while upbeat pop or indie tunes might be ideal for a trendy, bold brand.

Experiment With Scent Marketing

A pleasant fragrance like vanilla, citrus, or lavender can make your store feel more immersive and welcoming. Try using a scent diffuser to provide a pleasant sensory experience that encourages customers to stay longer.

Give Your Store the Makeover It Deserves

The look of your retail space matters to retain steady business. These tips to attract more customers with a retail store makeover will transform your store into a powerful brand that encourages customers to return and new ones to walk through the door.
