– Overview
Making the move to direct-to-consumer is challenging. Not only are there growing pains all over again, but ensuring the online buying experience matches the needs of your customers is vital. This is the story of how a consumer products company accelerated the digital transformation for one of its CPG brands through visual commerce.
As is the case for many CPG brands going digital for the first time, the eCommerce website resembled a static product brochure, lacking any content catered to the needs of its audience to help them reach buying decisions. Yet, this wasn’t because the brand didn’t have relevant content. Far from it, in fact. The brand had a collection of engaging videos, educational articles, and inspiring social posts that were stuck in silos across its different marketing channel.
