How to Dress for Mobile Commerce Success in the Fashion Industry

The VIP user experience through mobile

Research shows us that online shopping is shifting from desktop to mobile. Nowadays 46%, of the average revenue comes from mobile, compared to 25% from desktop and 9% from tablets. Especially amongst Millennials and Gen Zers whom are holding massive spending power. These tech-savvy consumers have the ability to boost volume, as they're more likely to do a wider share of shopping on their smartphones.

But with the fact that we can do our shopping at any time of the day, we are also becoming more demanding in terms of experience. Adobe’s research found that 80% of consumers are more likely to buy from retailers that offer personalized experiences. And 63% would increase their spending with a brand if it puts more emphasis on personalized shopping experiences.

Personalization and mobile are the trending topics in today’s fashion industry. As a fashion retailer you cannot stay behind. You should ensure that every mobile shopping experience is as good as the experience is in-stores. Send only relevant and personalized content to your customer. How? We’ve got you covered!
