The 10 keys to seducing and conquering consumers online (Part 2)

-

In our previous post, we explained 5 keys to get consumers in online markets. Of course, that is not enough and we are here to give you 5 more pieces of advice to make you e-commerce grow.

1) It has to be a solution

When we buy online, we can buy simultaneously in several spaces and various types of products. We do not have to navigate sections of a supermarket, for example, browsing shelves to see what we find, but you can put many things at the same time in the cart. This implies that companies have to be able to see the purchase not as something that is made product to product, but rather as a process in which products are keys to more things.

2) Many more audiences have to be reached, even those who have been forgotten

In a physical store, space is limited. A supermarket can not sell vegan products if there is not really a significant niche market and a cosmetics store can not sell a type of shampoo that only buy 2 people in that neighborhood. However, the online store allows you to do it (as well as allowing you to reach many more consumers than two) and must offer it. The Internet allows reaching more niche audiences and offering a much wider variety of products. It is not limited by space, which allows it to be much more varied and reach more consumers. In fact, it is what they expect.

3) Do not limit things

Let's talk about joining the points. In fact, it is what we have been hearing for months now as the need to connect with the omnichannel consumer. Consumers no longer function as watertight compartments but have been seeing more and more customers that jump from one channel to another and expect to do so in the same buying processes.The Internet and the physical stores can no longer be separated.

4) Do not forget personal experience

On the other hand, although the internet has created a new way to consume, citizens are still looking for experience, they want to continue to test what they are going to buy. It is what made showrooming become fashionable, for example, but also what makes them keep looking for samples and still wanting to try the product. Some recent success stories have been those of brands that, although they knew that their consumer was online, have allowed them to test their products offline before.

5) Use the data

Information is crucial, as has been learned in the latest analysis and studies. So is electronic commerce, which has also become a source of information with which it was not previously and with a quality that goes much further than others that companies have. The consumer is saying all the time how he wants to consume and what he wants to buy, something that is very interesting for brands and that these should take advantage of to be much more efficient.

Can you survive and sell on the internet without being the cheapest?

In the offline world, there are many types of stores and not all bet on the same criteria to try to reach the consumer. Not everyone wants to have a low cost supermarket or a discount store in which the main offer are products at low prices. So why is there a certain belief that when selling online you have to sell at a low price? Is e-commerce marked by offers to the point that it is only successful if it is sold cheap? For years, what most worked on the net were the offers. Consumers made the network their main ally when they were looking for things at lower prices. The trips started to be bought online because the internet was able to find the lowest prices, last minute offers of hotels or the cheapest fares of the low cost airlines. Then came the coupon pages or online outlets, which were the entry point for many consumers for e-commerce. And then many large e-commerce companies that invoice millions have made offer low prices a decisive element of their corporate image an...

Guide to Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP)

-
Those were the days when getting your book published was like a catch-22 situation, where the authors need to get past the most difficult gate. They spend months writing a book proposal and contacting agents in order to pitch their books up to great publishers. Who again are never satisfied with what they write and comments that it may not make good money.  So, when agents reject their book authors either abandon their dream of getting their book published or instill great confidence through contacting directly with publishers. Now publishers in turn send a rejection letter or quite a bad offer. Which is why Amazon created an incredible thing for authors as they can be a self-published author. This sounds great right!!! It actually paves the way for indie authors to bypass the traditional publishing method and be independent.  In this article we will get into the in depth knowledge of KDP like: What actually is KDP? What is KDP Select? What is CreateSpace? What is Amazon Assoc...

E-Commerce has no borders: Myth or reality?

-

One of the issues usually mentioned when talking about e-commerce is that it has served to break the frontiers. Consumers often look for specific things, products that they want, and it really gives them a little equal where the sellers sell them if what they offer them is what they want and if they make it arrive quickly and efficiently. This has created a boom in so-called cross-border trade (for example, we have to think about how we buy books today and where they come from nowadays: online bookstores sell all over the world, some of them even with free shipping no matter where you are) and has made consumers open their range of options. There are those who buy directly from Chinese e-commerces, although the products end up taking much longer to arrive than if they are bought in a geographically close online store. But is this principle absolutely true? Are consumers really so foreign to geography? I mean, are we buying without really caring about the physical location of...
