To Sell Direct Or Not – The Big Brand Challenge Of 2017

Original Air Date: Thursday, 11th May

Brands selling direct to consumers puts the brand back in the driving seat and opens dialogue that might have been missing previously. But does that mean a better customer experience?

Customer expectations are constantly increasing – this is not new news. They demand a seamless experience and they want to engage with the brands they love beyond the product on offer.

Nearly half of all branded manufacturers sell at least some products directly to consumers from their own website. Brands are the product source and therefore in a unique position in the world of e-commerce. But, selling directly to consumers doesn’t mean a brand is providing a better experience.
