Increasingly, consumers are demanding a seamless shopping experience — across online, in-store and mobile channels — or what retail experts call an "omnichannel" experience. A PricewaterhouseCoopers report published in September about the future of retailing, forecasts that, by 2020, "this should be a reality, with shoppers experiencing retailers as a single brand consistently across all points of contact, both virtual and real world."

Search has to evolve
These issues are the opportunities at stake for tomorrow's search engines. When you search, you know what you want (or something close to it) and the search engine points you in the right direction. You don't need to pre-install the results or pre-select the right app.
We've seen that Google, Bing, and Yahoo! have already made efforts to "appify" their results. When you search for "The Dark Knight," they all load movie show times, searching for addresses brings up maps, cities get weather forecasts, and stock symbols get charts, not to mention news results, image results, video results, etc. But, they're all trying to cover every scenario without the help of partners, which, as we learned from Yahoo!, is impossible in the long run.
The answer isn't to do it all in-house, nor is it only to enlist a community of app developers. The answer is a combination of the two: a portal connecting us to the app most qualified to accomplish the given query.
If the portal sees a query that's pretty common, they should make their own app. In Yahoo!'s case, they'd keep their own stocks and news apps, but they'd farm out things that are a little more niche (think Yelp, Spotify, social readers, etc.) This is similar to how the iPhone comes with a calendar app and stock app, but doesn't come with any games. There's always going to be a set of things nobody builds apps for - in that case, we always have the old school 10 blue links.
How would this work for search? Imagine if searching "black eyed peas" loaded the Spotify app right inside the website, or searching "French gourmet" loads the Yelp app? They can let third parties build as many apps as they want, with each competing for distribution by proving their value to the search engine's organic ranking system.
Such a search engine would mean that instead of having to install a hundred apps and remember which to use for which scenario, I'd have access to thousands of apps custom-built for each and every scenario I could ever desire. And even better, this lets me focus on my intent and what I want to do - not which app I should use to do it. Right now I have to think about the app category, like "I want restaurant info," to know which app to use. What I want is to skip this step and just state my intent: "I want French Laundry."

the cross-channel shopper. These are well-informed consumers:
they use the web and their social networks to learn about
the latest products, research what to buy, compare different
brands and models, and finally to actually buy that product.
If you’re a manufacturer of consumer-goods products such as
major appliances, computers, cameras, or other electronics
products, chances are there are cross-channel shoppers on
your website right now looking for detailed product information,
pricing, and where they can buy that product.
Perhaps you’re thinking: “We have a terrific online store. Plus,
we list all our online retail partners and storefront retailers.
We’ve got ’em covered.”
Well, maybe not. Research shows that these shoppers expect
your website to help them decide what to buy, and also where
to buy. That means they need to see accurate and up-to-date
presentation of all their buying options in one spot.
Check your website again. How good are your where-to-buy
options? Do you provide accurate pricing and retailer information
for both online and offline merchants? Read on to learn
what advanced features these shoppers need, and how you
can quickly implement them.

Search is used throughout the different stages of the process, with the most frequent path being a single, generic query. However, when consumers conduct multiple searches and move down the funnel, searches shift to what and where to buy. In these follow-up queries, shoppers use explicit queries to inform the specific decisions they are looking to make.
Three key findings on consumer usage of search for in-store shopping came to theforeground:
1.For in-store buyers, search is about discovery via generic keywords.
2.In-store buyers click on organic listings.
3.There is increased store locator visitation among buyers who use search andpurchase in-store.
These themes form a profile of the intent-driven shopper that will dramatically challengepreconception of search’s role in retail and may very well usher in a change of strategyfor many retail brands.
For the full year of 2012, net revenue is expected to be in the range of $136.4 million - $136.9 million, representing growth of approximately 64% compared to the full year of 2011. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $3.5 million to $4.0 million, which excludes a one-time charge of $1 million related to the Qype acquisition.
Fiscal 2012 Financial Guidance:
Revenue - The company expects 2012 revenue to be approximately $106 million, which will be an increase of over 35% compared to 2011 revenues.
Adjusted Net Income – Adjusted Net Income for 2012 is expected to be approximately $2.2 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, assuming diluted weighted average shares of 23.0 million, taking into account the dilutive effect of stock options and warrants.
2,2 Millionen Adjusted Net Income dürften sogar besser sein als 3,5 bis 4 Millionen Ebitda, da beim Adjusted Net Income noch mehr Aufwendungen abgehen - obwohl das immer auf den Einzelfall ankommt.
