Fashion ecommerce
Written 25.01.07
Selling fashion online is an art. Fashion companies have invested highly in their brands and a simple catalogue shop will not be adequate. Instead, effective fashion ecommerce combines excellent design, a great customer experience and on-brand marketing and content.
10 things to think about if you are selling fashion online
- Invest in beautiful design that is fast to load and easy to use
- Make sure that the online design fully reflects the offline brand
- Create 'magazine' content that will help customers understand the promise of the brand, its history and its unique character
- Select items that can be explored online
- Help existing offline customers re-order items they have bought in stores
- Provide excellent quality images of both the items and detailing
- Make sure that the shopping process is as smooth and error free as the best customer service offered offline
- Explore ways of recognising your regular customers and make them feel special with appropriate offers and promotions
- Use rich media components such as Flash and Java sparingly to make the site usable to all customers
- Integrate your new site with online and offline marketing campaigns to maximise visitors, customers and results
