Ecommerce can be broken into:
B2B, B2C

business with each other
such as manufacturers
selling to distributors and
wholesalers selling to
retailers. Pricing is based
on quantity of order and
is often negotiable.

general public typically
through catalogs utilizing
shopping cart software.
By dollar volume, B2B
takes the prize, however
B2C is really what the
average Joe has in mind
with regards to
ecommerce as a whole.

predictive analytics from a theoretical
nice-to-have, into something that can
drive real prospect and customer
engagement." Chris Benedetto,

Recruitment and up-skilling
 Rick Schultz senior VP of marketing
at Alteryx makes the point plainly:
“Every single role in marketing now
needs analytical skills. Not everyone
needs to be a data specialist – but
they have to have the ability to think
analytically about data in a way that
allows them to test and measure

11.
Marketing automation
 Paul Houston , director of Cognition ,
says: “MA isn’t just limited to email.
Your social media activity can be
integrated into your campaigns. For
example, by engaging with the right
audience on social media in a helpful
manner, you can expand your
audience and capture a consistent flow

12.
The Multi-channel customer
 Henning Ogberg, Senior VP, EMEA at
SugarCRM , concludes: “What
customers really want is to be able to
switch between channels seamlessly
while continuing a single conversation
or transaction with a business. If they’re
not able to do this, marketers risk
facing a disgruntled customer.”

13.
Events and tradeshows
 Some old techniques are making a
comeback (for most companies they
never got old). In any relationship-
driven business, in-person interactions
act as the best marketing technique
since there is no substitute to it.

14.
Social media
 The highly interactive nature of social
networks allows you to build strong
customer relations and provide
frequent product updates. Since
membership is generally free, social
networks are a cost-effective way of
engaging customers.

15.
Blogs
 Blogs are powerful marketing tools for
establishing yourself as an expert and
promoting your goods or services.
Your expertise and passion will earn
your customers' trust.

16.
Email marketing
 Sending sales and newsletters to your
customers creates awareness of new
products, promotions and updates.

17.
Telephone marketing
 Preparation is the key to successful
telephone marketing. Sending your
customers promotional materials or
discount coupons before making your
call gives them time to familiarize
themselves with your service or
product.
