E-commerce, short for electronic commerce, refers to the buying and selling of goods and services over the internet. It encompasses a wide range of activities, including electronic fund transfers, online auctions and internet banking but is mostly used to mean online shopping. 

E-commerce has revolutionized the way business is conducted, allowing individuals and organizations to engage in commercial transactions without geographical limitations. It provides customers with the convenience of browsing and purchasing products from the comfort of their homes, and businesses with the opportunity to reach a global audience and operate 24/7. 

With the increasing popularity of E-commerce, businesses have adapted by creating user-friendly websites, optimizing their online presence, and employing digital marketing strategies to attract and retain customers in the competitive online marketplace.

Online advertising plays a crucial role in supporting and enhancing E-commerce ventures. It offers numerous benefits for businesses looking to expand their online presence and increase sales. It starts at the top of the funnel with creating brand awareness and then moving the customer along to engagement /consideration, until the last stage is reached: conversion. 

The beauty of online marketing versus traditional, offline marketing, is that everything is measurable. Not only do you get feedback on important KPI’s like impressions, clicks and cost per click, you can also fuse the data of your campaign to the data of your webshop to create a dynamic ad campaign that in real time adjusts to the latest data and the individual customer. 

There are many platforms that cater to E-commerce, the most obvious one being Google Shopping, but also social media platforms like Facebook, TikTok and Pinterest offer conversion solutions.

Ultimately, online advertising empowers E-commerce businesses to build brand awareness, drive website traffic, and boost sales in a measurable and cost effective way.

Our customers are different every time. Advertisers selling the exact same products can turn out to need a very different approach due to different margins, different secondary USPs, different setups of marketing teams, and different levels of online savviness. That’s why for each customer, but also for each project within the customers’ organisation, we create a custom plan, every time.

First we’ll need to understand the customers’ organisation and the objectives. By making them quantifiable, we will understand what the boundaries are of how to ‘play the online game’. Then we will dive into your data to understand the current situation and look for opportunities. In order to come up with the right (branding) strategy.

We believe that if both sides – the customer and we as the agency – bring their knowledge to the table, we can make the most successful strategies. That is why we need to get to know each other very well, have clear success metrics in place, we need to zoom out regularly, and always keep an open conversation.
