Digital transformation, evolve your distribution channel with an e-commerce solution
by Francesco Schettini, 10/8/2020, 11:34:24 AMFor many manufacturers the e-commerce seem still away but time is proving it cannot be avoided at all. In addition, the same distributors are demanding selling online eventually with their own implementation.
We strognly believe a manufacturer can and must provide their distributors the possibility to sell online with the unified brand's platform, mainly for the following reasons:
- the brand can better guide the whole sales process (until selling to final consumers);
- marketing, promotions, catalog, customer service, business intellgence, analytics and monitoring can be totally centrilized;
- distributors can benefit the brand's image and potential but defining their own prices, inventory and shipping charges.
The result is a fantastic user experience in an integrated brand's ecosystem.
