When talking face to face, personalization often happens at unconscious level. Interacts are smooth, adapted on the fly to suit the customer’s needs.

Everyone gets stressed on Black Friday but, between us, shoppers are the ones that have it easy 😉 Behind the scenes, entire IT, marketing and customer support teams need to prepare a solid strategy.

For most businesses, a typical content management system (including traditional and headless CMS versions) will answer all essential needs – landing pages, home pages, contact details etc – with little effort. With e-commerce operations however, there are additional needs we need to consider: products. In fact, that’s an oversimplification. With...

Power BI

The Business Intelligence market is vast – there are many options and it’s estimated that no one solution owns more than 20% of the market. In other words, there’s no clear winner – but are there losers? Well, as the title suggests, we want to use this space to talk about QlikSense vs Power BI (the former being the...

Nearly every industry these days has an online element – in some cases, it’s the predominant channel. And that’s great – if you don’t have any accessibility requirements.  But as more and more of the world moves online, we need to consider the wider needs that different people may...

How do you measure success? It’s not a trick question. With an online business such as e-commerce stores, there’s a whole wealth of information to draw insights from. However, at the same time, it’s easy to get lost in the multitude of data, statistics, tables and charts. That’s why we want to guide through the most essential statistics: what...

Power BI

Depending on how mature your business is, you might find it necessary to set up a data storage tool. The most common motivation to implement a database is the need to put in order the constantly growing number of business-relevant information from a large number of sources. A well-designed database ensures coherence and integrity of the information it...

We previously discussed the wider concept of customer experience, but let’s focus on one of the most critical steps: product page conversion. After all – this is the make-or-break moment. Do users convert into customers or not? Users on such pages have found what they want – optimizing product pages will ensure they’re more likely to follow through...

A great retail business is as much about the experience as it is the products. And in this area, the digital side has often been lagging. With the growth of e-commerce* the need for a better digital customer experience only grows – so let’s hit that nail right on the head. If you are the owner of an e-commerce...

If you’re an IT Director, you’ve probably had a lot of change recently. More so, in the B2B sector, these ripples seem to keep on coming – your role looks very different from a year or two ago.   Repetitive tasks, a nice orderly schedule and emergency-free weeks have gone out the window. Now, digital transformation is more important than...

We’ve talked a lot about headless. We’ve also talked a lot about e-commerce. We like to talk so – what if we throw these two topics together?   Headless commerce is a very logical conclusion – and the wider industry seems to agree.
