How to differentiate yourself online and present your product well?
Presenting and selling products online is a discipline with very strict rules. Consumers are spoiled by big market players and are not satisfied with little. Their good experience is often determined by details. What are today's internet customers like and what shopping experience are they looking for?
They are comfortable and have no time
Customers need to quickly and easily find what they are looking for, conveniently filter and buy as easily as possible. Focus on smoothing out their journey from finding products to paying for goods.
They want information
In order for customers to trust you, they need to have all the essential information at hand, supplemented by the highest quality visual material. What they will not find in you, they will look elsewhere.
They are happy to come in person
Easy pick up of orders, warranty claim, testing of products or the possibility of professional consultation are great advantages of brick-and-mortar stores. If you have one, connect it
with e-shop.
54% of them shop via mobile phone
Over the last two years, the share of mobile purchases has increased by 10% and a further increase can be expected in the future. Remember that your site must be responsive.
They prefer empathy
Empathize with your customers and tell them how and in what specific situations can your product help them. Clear communication works wonders.
They are looking for a
tailor-made experience
Use data collection to personalize your communication. 50% of customers are likely to buy from you again with offers created from their previous purchases.
They require royal care
Getting a new customer is five times more expensive than getting an existing one back. They will return to you when they have easy access to technical support and easy warranty claims.
They hesitate
E-shop visitors only spend 5% of their browsing time shopping. 95% of the time is spent searching for products, comparing them and other non-purchasing activities.
They are interested in you
Not only are customers interested in who you are, but also in what is your philosophy and the story of your origin. Show the faces of your team and say why and how you decided to do what you do.

Product detail
The presentation of the product must evoke in the need in the customer to purchase it. The basis is enough technical and marketing information, quality images or videos and a clear conversion action.
List of products
(Keep your e-shop tidy.) In order for the customer to find what they want, they need a clear list of products, the possibility of sorting and filtering them, easy orientation in subcategories and easy way of switching between them.
Detail of category / brand
Each subcategory or brand should be well presented to users and search engines. Below the detail there should be a clear list of individual products.
Shopping process
Make it as easy and quick as possible for customers to shop. Keep only the necessary steps, elements and items in the purchasing process and focus on additional sales.
Company presentation
Rather than the history of the company, describe the future of your industry, what qualities and values are important to your team, and what you are doing to meet the expectations of your clients.
