Effortless shopping drives sales and customer experience
67% of consumers and 74% of business buyers say they’ll pay more for a great experience.
In a recent PwC study, about two-thirds (65%) of respondents in the US feel that a positive experience with a brand is more influential than great advertising.
The number one factor in delivering a great customer experience is not delighting customers but reducing their efforts. However, the product discovery and buying process in the B2B world is usually very complex. This often leads to:
Bad Shopping Experiences
Customers go through multiple pages and unrelated items before finding the right product.
Poor Conversions
Customers often leave the website as it takes forever to find the relevant and correct information.
Product Failures
Good products get buried as they do not get found easily or enough.
