One eCommerce trend that's slated to change the future of this market is shoppertainment. Over the years, shoppertainment has become increasingly popular among consumers and marketers alike as people seek more engaging shopping experiences online. Out are the boring and monotonous marketing campaigns trying to get people's attention, and are in highly engaging videos that entertain as much as they promote. In short, marketing today is about the user, not the brand behind it. Wondering why shoppertainment is such a crucial investment today? Here we'll dive deeper into this trend and the many benefits you'll get from it.

When it comes to monitoring eCommerce websites, there are so many tools you can use. For someone relatively new to eCommerce, it can be pretty overwhelming, with so many numbers and statistics to analyze and understand. And while all of these metrics bear some importance, not all of them will be important to you with every campaign. Some will be more crucial to measure than others based on your goals, making it important to cut through the noise and focus only on those metrics that matter most. To help you succeed with your eCommerce efforts, let's take a close look at what eCommerce website metrics are all about and go into some of the specific metrics worth tracking.
The checkout is one of the most critical moments in the eCommerce experience. In order to incentivize customers to checkout, you need to create an effective marketing campaign. You can then inspire those customers to jump into a purchase as you excite them with details about your products. However, all those efforts can be fruitless if your checkout process is less than desirable. To help you prevent any issues from turning customers away once you've captured them, consider the following eCommerce checkout best practices.
"Personalization" and "customization" are often used interchangeably, but they are distinct concepts with different implications for the end user. Personalization involves tailoring an experience to an individual based on their unique preferences, interests, and behaviors. At the same time, customization puts the power in the user's hands, allowing them to create an experience uniquely suited to their needs. In this blog post, we'll explore the difference between personalization and customization, highlight their importance in enhancing the customer experience, and discuss the challenges and considerations for implementing them in a business context.
For someone who is new to the retail and eCommerce landscape, it is essential to pay attention to the leading experts in the industry.

This is why I want to share the following list with you, which includes US-based retail and eCommerce experts that you’ll need to keep an eye out for in 2024 and beyond.
Video Stories can significantly improve engagement, conversions, and retention for retail apps and websites. The key is to use them the right way to provide customers with a unique experience that drives conversions and inspires users. To help you fully utilize video Stories and realize their possibilities, we'll give you some ideas for how to use them to your advantage.
More and more shoppers today seek inspiration online for their purchases. Even when shoppers aren't currently looking for something, a certain source may inspire them to make a purchase. In fact, according to Google, 60% of consumers get the urge to buy a product from a source of inspiration even when they're not actively shopping. If you want to incentivize your customers to buy from you, you should understand precisely what inspires shoppers and how you can appeal to this need.
Acquiring new customers and retaining existing ones helps boost revenue, but you should also do what you can to maximize their order values. Unfortunately, it's often hard to get customers to pile on items to their initial orders. If you can somehow increase the average basket size of your customers, you can significantly increase your revenue with each customer and order. High average order sizes will ultimately help your business directly, making this an essential metric to boost. Thankfully, there are plenty of means to help you increase average cart value, but Video Stories are among the most effective you'll find. There are several reasons I recommend this means in particular: Video Stories improve product discovery, decrease cart abandonment, maximize average basket size, and increase conversion rates.
It’s time to give your email strategy a glow-up! Inbox Stories, a new feature that lets you integrate Story content directly into an email is a dynamic new way to improve CTR and achieve your engagement and retention goals.
