Posted by Admin on 22nd September 2020

Unsurprisingly, in the current climate E-Commerce has become increasingly important for businesses of all kinds who seek to find new opportunities, whilst engaging with existing consumers digitally.

E-Commerce isn’t just a channel for retail, it’s become an important consideration for businesses operating in events and hospitality, food and drink, even manufacturing sectors.

As brick-and-mortar stores have taken a huge hit, the move to online shopping has accelerated — to the tune of an 18% increase, according to eMarketer. Its recently updated forecast pegs e-commerce’s share of 2020 retail sales to reach 14.5%, which is an all-time high and the biggest share increase in a single year!

The Coronavirus pandemic has sped up the need for online stores and the requirements for digital services, across all sectors of the economy.

The businesses that are more likely to thrive in the coming years will be those that can pivot quickly and smoothly to the new online realities.

Increased consumer expectations

Today’s shoppers have increased expectations. An online store is expected to be available all day, every day – meaning your customers can visit your store at all times, no matter what their schedule might be and receive a response to enquiries in a timely fashion.

Discover new marketing opportunities 

Your website is one of the best marketing tools your business has. Not only can the use of SEO lead to increased chances of your business getting found in search engines but it provides an ever-present online profile where potential customers/clients can find out more about your business.
