Igor’s Tip of the Month: eCommerce is a Team Game 🤹🏻‍♀️

Specialist Sell jewelry online

“Managing your online presence requires a wide set of skills. This starts with handling the product information, building the online jewelry catalogue, and organizing the product images. Later, you need to manage your online assets: your website, marketplaces, and other channels. Online marketing is also a handful, including email and social marketing, PPC campaigns, and much more. Customer service, orders management, logistics and fulfillment follow suit. It’s quite hard to do it all on yourself. Building a team of diverse skills is therefore advisable. Automating with software wherever possible also helps! 😉”
