Creating memorable eCom experiences: A dive into content-rich product pages
"Today, people buy experiences, not products… Products [aren’t the main] differentiator anymore… Companies are competing for the hearts and minds of all customers and should aim to exceed their expectations during every point of the journey."
In the fast-paced world of e-commerce, product pages often prioritise conversion and order value over meaningful user engagement. However, by integrating rich content alongside eCommerce best practice we can enrich a shoppers understanding of a brands value, instil trust in its quality and ultimately create inspiring journeys that drive engagement and conversions.
Some guiding principles for success:
Innovate without Compromising Usability: Strive for innovation while ensuring a seamless user experience.
Content that Aids User Interaction: Engaging content should facilitate user engagement and interaction.
Clear CTAs Keep the Shopping Journey Top-of-Mind: Ensure that calls-to-action are prominent and guide users effectively.
