KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE
One of the significant differences between e-commerce and retail is your reviews. An eCommerce review in 2015 can still be valuable in 2021!
If you invest in e-commerce today, you’re investing for tomorrow and possibly in 10 years from now.
If you have a unique product and people are searching for it, it is much easier to find your website than through specialty retail stores. Do this by establishing your brand.
Be where the customer is most comfortable buying from you.
Your main goal is for the customers to think about your brand when looking for something you have.
