How to Improve Lead Generation in Casual Mall Leasing

Crenex - Lead generation

The global shopping centre landscape has undergone a radical transformation in recent years. The acceleration of e-commerce and the constant evolution of consumer habits have created a challenging environment for shopping centre owners and operators. In this context, property owners face increasing vacancy rates, particularly in peripheral areas and smaller spaces.

Globally, e-commerce continues to grow at a rapid pace. According to Shopify, global e-commerce sales are expected to reach $6.3 trillion by 2025, representing nearly 23% of total retail sales. This phenomenon is driving brands to reconsider their physical presence, putting even more pressure on traditional commercial spaces. Additionally, it is expected that e-commerce revenue in Australia will grow at an annual rate of 8.27% between 2025 and 2029, reflecting a global trend towards the expansion of online commerce.

Current Challenges in Lead Generation for Commercial Leasing

Global retail sales

Shopping centres face several obstacles when it comes to attracting tenants for their commercial spaces:

  • Lack of visibility: Many owners struggle to connect with the right brands, making it difficult to fill vacancies.

  • Inefficient traditional strategies: Manual tenant search methods, such as property brokering, can be long and costly processes, with no guarantee of generating high-quality leads.

  • Changing consumer preferences: The demand for innovative and flexible shopping experiences has forced shopping centres to quickly adapt to new trends, often driven by the rise of e-commerce.

A Shopify study predicts that by 2027, e-commerce will represent approximately 41% of global retail sales, a significant increase from 18% in 2017. This shift highlights the need for shopping centres to digitise and modernise their strategies to remain competitive.

Digitalisation: The Key to Tenant Acquisition

In this ever-changing environment, digitalisation and automation are crucial tools for optimising lead generation in commercial leasing. Implementing technological platforms allows for:

  • Accelerating the leasing process, significantly reducing vacancy times.
  • Connecting more efficiently with relevant brands, thanks to automation and data precision.
  • Improving management of the process, from lead generation to contract signing and invoicing.
