Ecommerce Design

EcomChat on Monday 25th October 2021 is on the topic of Ecommerce Design. In general it is seen as very important that products should look and feel great, and that ecommerce sites themselves should look & feel slick. But many high performing ecommerce businesses do not focus on this area from an aesthetic point of view as heavily: Ebay, even Amazon, Walmart, Currys, even fast fashion brands like Boohoo, or global retailers such as SHEIN or Wish are seen as not very visually appealing.

Today’s chat will explore this a little more.

As ever, there will be 3 loose questions to guide us through.

1. When does ‘design’ matter for ecommerce sites, and where does it not really make a difference?
2. How can ecommerce companies use design to push ahead of their competitors and increase customers’ happiness?
3. How should ecommerce companies invest in design? In-house, freelance, product design, graphic designers? What’s best value for money?
