I smell a straw man.
Let’s briefly address some of your points:

@Yinka

Who’s to say Yudala’s offline sales haven’t dropped too?

No one. I didn’t make any assertion about this.

@Yinka

Perhaps you visit the place everyday?

No, I don’t.

@Yinka

I bought my current device from Konga

Is Konga an offline-centric store?
Did you read this:

[/quote]?
I said store, not site.

@Yinka

A 50% drop in traffic is more likely to lead to a drop in sales.

Pray tell, how do you capture offline metrics online?

@Yinka

Either way we’re all stumbling in the dark here. Unless there’s a public report, we can’t know much.

This, I (partly) agree with.

@ukay

smell a straw man.

Really?

After I posted stats to spur conversation and all you had to say was

@ukay

I bought my current phone at Yudala’s store (abi na mall?) in Abuja.

Man go look for someone else to argue with.

@Yinka

and all you had to say

You actually posted part of what I had to say; let me help you with all of them:

@ukay

This is like looking for rabbits in the air. Yudala is more focused on offline sales (from my casual observation).I bought my current phone at Yudala’s store (abi na mall?) in Abuja. Good luck finding that on SimilarWeb.

Can your stats tell us what the “traffic” is like for Shoprite this month? Could we accurately measure Shoprite’s visits/patronage, which happens offline, by online activity?

@Yinka

Man go look for someone else to argue with.

No, thanks.
I’m only interested in calling out faulty logic in hopes that someone else will call out the holes in mine so I can learn.

Like the Target Model that use a blend of offline and online, Amazon is opening Experential centres likewise that will host AWS, Echo and Bookstores and you can walk in, order, deliver to ur home.
