Online shopping is only going to get bigger and bigger, and if you’re business isn’t prepared for ECommerce, you are missing out. Forbes laid out some stats to get you inspired, but they might just strike fear in the hearts of the unprepared. As pumpkins lay strewn across suburban streets and children across the map are nursing sour stomachs from last night’s trick or treating, retailers have already begun the march towards Black Friday and Cyber Monday. We ask you- are you prepared for the Shopocalypse? Here are some numbers that might light the fire you need to get moving this year:
Overall retail sales will be up 17% this year- how much of that pot are you going to claim?
65% of millenials will make a purchase using a mobile device this year. Are they buying from you?
Consumers will spend about 19 BILLION dollars this year between Thanksgiving and Cyber Monday alone. That’s coming up soon. Is your marketing strategy in place?
Generation Z will account for about 40% of the market by 2020- and they are mobile users. Is your site mobile friendly yet?
Apple Pay. Paypal. Cash App. Venmo. Zelle. There are dozens of ways for customers to pay you. How many of them are you currently accepting?
It’s a lot to take in, but don’t get discouraged. If you are overwhelmed by the thought of getting ready for the busy holiday season, Company 119 is here to help. Contact us today, and we’ll help guide your Ecommerce sleigh through the fog of online sales!
