With holiday shopping on the horizon, partners make all the difference
When it comes to possession of purchasing power, consumers have never been more in control. Today’s savvy shoppers select what, where and how they buy – and are increasingly aware of their authority. In fact, shoppers in 2023 expect to be provided with options that fit their individual needs.
New research from SAP Emarsys shows that over two thirds (65%) of Americans like the option to communicate with brands via different platforms, and a further study by the omnichannel customer engagement platform found the average American has four ‘shoppable devices’ in their home. Brands have to deliver on customer expectations while at the same time, producing profitable business outcomes. It’s no easy feat, leading to a complex, diverse and ever-changing marketing landscape.
To empower brands and marketers to excel in an ever-evolving e-commerce environment, SAP Emarsys, has unveiled its revolutionary partner ecosystem. The Emarsys Partner Connect Ecosystem offers expanded access to proven and pre-integrated solutions from market-leading technology and expert solution partners – equipping brands with the capability to create marketing and commerce experiences that attract and advance authentic relationships with customers.
