SARATOGA SPRINGS, NY– November 30, 2011 –– CORESense (www.coresense.com), provider of the first and only cloud-based multi-store/multi-channel retail management solution, today announced that total orders, total sales and gross margin for their retail clients increased significantly on Black Friday, the all-important start to the Holiday Shopping season.
CORESense clients leverage their presence across multiple channels including catalog, online, stores, call centers and kiosks as well as a centrally managed back office to cost effectively increase traffic and average transaction size. Most recently these retailers rode their multi-channel and cross-channel strategies to 24 percent year-over-year growth in sales on Black Friday. In comparison, ShopperTrak reported that the retail industry saw a 6.6 percent increase compared to Black Friday 2010. In addition, while many retailers pushed margin-busting discounts to attract shoppers, CORESense retailers were able to increase gross margin 15 percent year over year.

It’s gratifying to see them leverage their multi-channel presence to achieve results like this,” said Chris Martin, CEO of CORESense. “We are delighted with our clients' results and are looking forward to their continued success during the remainder of the holiday shopping season."
