Digital customer experience and brand loyalty is on the decline. While consumer optimism and
spending have stayed strong, businesses are seeing 75% of consumers changing their online
shopping behavior and 40% switching brands or retailers (Mckinsey & Company
Article).
Customer journeys are not linear but rather a combination of traditional and digital channels
that have given rise to omnichannel consumers that expect seamless interactions with retailers
regardless of the shopping method.
With consumer expectations at an all-time high, how are established retailers
and wholesalers expected to drive business impact and improve their eCommerce customer experience to
maintain loyalty and increase organic growth?
