Why eCommerce Is So Important Right Now
Simply put: eCommerce sales are up and in-store sales are down, and this trend seems likely to continue.
- eCommerce sales on Black Friday 2020 increased 21.6% YoY from 2019 with total revenues of $9.03 billion according to Adobe Analytics, which measures 80% of online transactions at the 100 largest US web retailers.
- In-store Black Friday 2020 foot traffic declined by 52.1%, according to Sensormatic Solutions, which uses cameras to measure in-store shopper foot traffic.
Does this data suggest the end of Black Friday in-store shopping as we know it? Some experts, including UMKC Economics Associate Professor Dr. Linwood Tauheed, believe that it does – that changes in consumer shopping trends in 2020 could be “the nail in the coffin” for in-store Black Friday shopping.
However, as we all learned in 2020, no one can predict the future.
While an apocalyptic “end of Black Friday” scenario is plausible, it seems unlikely. What we and many other experts envision is that consumers will sustain their online shopping behaviors post-pandemic and that the expanded online market will provide eCommerce-enabled sellers with emerging sales opportunities.
Our viewpoint is backed by data: According to market research company GlobalWebIndex, 33% of research respondents who had not regularly shopped online before the pandemic planned to continue shopping online after the pandemic was over.
Acumatica Commerce Edition can help your business capture a larger portion of those sales.
