36. Online Store
Offline Store
Social Media
Online member purchase offline,
Not able to track member details、
and compile spending amount.
Online and Offline members not
synchronise,without member analysis
and member levels.
We are not able to track all the members
social media status thru any online or
offline store,It’s tough for us to do a
custom audience targeting.
Seller Issue
POINT:Brands also hard to focus on all members targeting.
37. Buyer Issue
It’s tough for all online and offline
members to accumulated their spending
amount、and also tough for them to log
in the website anytime.
The online application is tough and every
time need to re-register for new members、
so its very hard to track the member
activities.
POINT:Online and Offline members are always different.
The enquires from social media will always
duplicate.
