What did E-tailers learn from Retailers?

Paco Doesn’t know

Web Agencies don’t know

WWW4

Damned if you do - damned if you don’t

Retailers Know how important conversion is, but they don’t know how do it on the web

WWW Know how to design, but they don’t know what to use it for (Hint: conversion)

What if you built a Selver store the same way you build E-commerce sites?

• At first the experts would go in andfix their parts:• Fridges

• Lighting

• Cash registers

• Flooring

• Etc.

• Then the merchant would ask his kids and their friends to roll in the goods and put it where they thought it was the best!

How do you communicate a category?

Here’s a Swedish Experiment

41

42

Searchers are converters• We typically see that conversion rate in the segment

”Visits with search” is twice as high as visits without search

• Put search prominently

• Deliver great results

43

Menu navigation is not always the best, and should not be the only, way to find

products

That was Seach &Navigation

Now to Categorization and Naming

Inside-out categorization

Top 10 german e-commerce sites

Not a single one of the top 10 German

E-commerce sites* has Alphabetical

Categorization!

"Shopping-Portale und Online-Shops 2011: Die umsatzstärksten Online-Shops”

iBussines (ibusiness.de) in cooperation with EHI Retail Institute (ehi.org)

52

Cognitive tasks involved1. Recognizing that the list is alphabetically ordered

2. Using the correct word for the category

3. Estimating where in the list your category will appear (roughly)

4. Going to that place to look for it

Or

1. You can just look around and find it

= Satisficing

REI – tents

Customers said they:

1. Read the information on the product page

2. Based the decision on features- summary

250 vs 60 bought tent

nr 1 !

58

What do we learn from this?

Where you put things

(order)

Has a great impact on conversion

Step 3 - Add to cart

Retailing has gone from”Advertising”To”In-store marketing”

E-tailing is still stuck at ”Advertising”

People can be influenced

BUT

They’re not looking for the same things before and after they’ve added something to the cart
