In today's fast-evolving technological landscape, it is essential for brands to establish an online presence to boost sales. But how can they effectively achieve this and succeed in the competitive world of online retail?
Many e-commerce platforms can help build an online store, but they may not drive enough traffic to scale in the online space. Instead, entrepreneurs can leverage available brand networks and distribute their products in various online stores and through retailers and influencers who can help direct traffic and generate orders passively. David Perry shares his journey helping connect online retailers and influencers, enabling them to extend their reach, diversify their product offerings, and craft compelling, personalized customer experiences.
