Brand Commerce Milan
Excelsior Hotel Gallia, Piazza Duca d'Aosta, Milano, Italy
Milan
Summary
A private dinner for ambitious digital businesses
With digital commerce now in the mainstream across Italy, brand owners are starting to seriously examine how their eCommerce websites deliver on two key requirements:
- Enhance and protect the value of your Brand
- Deliver online revenue in the form of new online transitions for your products
In some cases these two requirements compete with each other: Brand enhancement is focused mostly on content & design, whilst eCommerce outcomes are fuelled by product information, more detailed imagery and (potentially) a more sales-focused page design.
Over our delicious dinner in September, we will debate how to blend these two objectives to satisfy both brand objectives and commercial appetites.
- Can Brand website design also accommodate online transactions?
- Does eCommerce need different content to drive sales than Brand marketing can provide?
- How does eCommerce revenue affect your branded wholesale relationships?
