Find out why omnichannel strategies are essential for your Ecommerce business’ growth beyond 2022.  

All About Omnichannel  

The pandemic accelerated the growth of Ecommerce by several folds. But the global disruption also led retailers to realize just how important omnichannel strategies are for their online businesses. 

Millions of consumers are literally hopping from one channel to another. And they will have to visit dozens of them, or more, before hitting the checkout or buy button at the end of their buying journey. For brands, this is an opportunity that should not be missed.  

But how do you successfully execute an omnichannel strategy? Omnichannel, after all, is not just about putting up multiple channels to promote your shop and products. 

It is about providing an integrated and seamless shopping experience across multiple channels or touchpoints.  

According to Shopify, here are three, essential things businesses should take note when deploying omnichannel for their Ecommerce.  

• Accurately mapping the customer journey 
• Providing a personalized experience at each stage of the journey 
• Empowering the customer to buy from your store wherever channel they are

Case: Yuan Skincare Smart Retailing  

Like this case from Yuan Skincare, a Taiwanese skincare brand. Yuan set up a smart-retail booth in one of Singapore’s most popular pharmacy chains. The move was made to tap Singaporean buyers who prefer to go to brick-and-mortar stores. And those who need to physically buy medicines straight from the stores themselves.  

But aside from setting up an AI-booth, Yuan Skincare also leveraged its existing online channels to draw customers in Singapore to visit them for a chance to win prizes and other freebies.
