As brands grapple with small teams and increased content demands, compelling, optimized content remains a priority. In a landscape where even a 1% improvement can produce significant gains, how can brands ensure their content resonates with target audiences across channels?

With platform and retailer algorithms ranking content based on qualitative and quantitative factors, eCommerce thought leader Chris Perry emphasizes the importance of conducting content page audits. This includes measuring keywords for specific categories, identifying your target audience, including relevant images, and ensuring your titles reach the required character count. Updating your PDPs with a single image can increase conversion rates by 2%. Chris also recommends optimizing your content for mobile devices to meet customers where they shop. This involves creating user-friendly designs and prioritizing image creation.

Tune in to this episode of The Digital Deep Dive as Aaron Conant hosts Chris Perry, the Co-founder and Chief Learning Officer at firstmovr, to discuss optimizing content for the digital shelf. Chris explains how to test content creation tools, how to produce and measure full-funnel content, and firstmovr’s ENDCAPS educational program.

Action Steps:

  1. Conduct regular digital shelf audits: Regularly auditing your digital shelf ensures that your product pages remain relevant and optimized for the shopper experience. This allows you to create content that meets retailer requirements and evolving consumer expectations.
  2. Prioritize mobile-ready content: Optimizing your content for mobile devices is crucial as more consumers shop via smartphones. This captures consumer attention in a mobile-first world.
  3. Integrate social proof and user-generated content: Leveraging social proof can enhance credibility and engagement, making product pages more compelling. This provides an opportunity to build trust and connection through authentic consumer voices.
  4. Develop a full-funnel content strategy: Aligning your content with various stages of the consumer journey ensures a consistent and persuasive message. This addresses the challenge of fragmented content strategies and provides an opportunity to enhance conversion rates.
  5. Adopt a continuous improvement mindset: Embrace content creation as an ongoing practice rather than a one-time project, allowing for regular updates and optimizations. This mindset is effective in driving incremental improvements and staying ahead of the competition.

The eCommerce landscape is advancing rapidly, and first-mover organizations are capitalizing on digital trends for 2024. What eCommerce projections should you observe, and how can you implement them to drive explosive growth in 2024?

First mover and change leader Chris Perry notes that shoppers expect omnichannel integrations at every touchpoint, so everything from online and in-store shopping experiences to retail media should include omnichannel strategies. With the rapid adoption of retail media, first movers must dismantle advertising and media silos to develop a full-funnel approach that engages audiences. As Gen Z consumers shop on social media platforms like TikTok, social commerce has become the leading driver of digital, making it crucial for first movers to leverage. Additionally, increasing acquisitions and partnerships have led to competition, so by partnering with agencies of record (AOR), you can enable long-term leadership and growth. Category management strategies are imperative in generating incremental omnichannel growth. To ensure effective omnichannel capabilities, you must update your processes, details, and workflows.

In this episode of The Digital Deep Dive, Aaron Conant welcomes Chris Perry, the Co-founder and Chief Learning Officer at firstmovr, to discuss the leading digital commerce trends for 2024. Chris shares how to develop winning online and in-store shopping strategies, how to promote first-mover leadership training and education, and how to execute omnichannel strategies.

In this episode…

eCommerce as a concept is daunting, with professionals struggling to understand digital product launches and same-day deliveries. Yet, this rapidly evolving space demands a certain level of organizational change and management. As a first mover navigating the tumultuous digital world, how can you educate your team to facilitate digital transformation?

According to Chris Perry and Oskar Kaszubski, the most common growth barrier eCommerce companies face is siloed teams. This occurs because businesses haven’t modified their goals to accommodate future transformation. When dismantling silos, it’s necessary to collect performance measurements of each function in an organization. But true change transpires when eCommerce leaders remain involved in operations and embrace the learning curve that accompanies digital organization.

In today’s episode of The Digital Deep Dive, Aaron Conant welcomes Chris Perry and Oskar Kaszubski of firstmovr to talk about digital change management and organizational development. Together, they cover how to educate eCommerce executives on change management, the importance of accountability, personal measurement, and growth, and eCommerce leaders’ biggest pain points.
