Industries entering the direct to consumer market should avoid some
common mistakes…
???
1. Not Defining a Coherent Market Approach
• What is the main purpose of
your online store?
• How will your commercial
strategy look like?
• What are your main KPIs?
• How will you inform your
retailers you are entering the
market?
• How are you going to launch
your online store? Soft launch
X mass press?
• What are you going to
outsource?
• Who is going to run the online
store?
2. Creating a Separate Website forthe Online Store
• You might loosevisual identity
• Your customersmight feel lost and not follow the conversion funnel
• Be careful with website reputation on search engines
3. Operating the online store as the maincompany
• You will need a separate team
• You will have to develop
different processes and solution
to different problems
• You will need to hire different
suppliers
• You will need flexibility and
agility
• And most important of all,
different KPI´s
4. Hiring One Person to Run the Show
• You will need a team and not only one more person.
• The company will have to hire specialized people to run the business in order to acquire knowhow.
• Internal resources might not have the necessary knowledge.
5. Considering the social media budget as different wallets
• Once the industry enters the
digital sales market, it will have to
rethink the entire digital media
budget
• Invest in the right media for the
right purpose.
• Set specific KPI´s
