Live Shopping, a revolution initiated by Alibaba’s Taobao Live, is transforming the eCommerce landscape. This approach combines the exciting experience of live shopping with digital convenience and efficiency, establishing itself as a cornerstone in the online sales strategy for modern businesses. This innovation, transcending borders, has proven to be a crucial tool for engaging customers and driving online sales, gaining prominence after 2020.
What is Live Shopping?
Live Shopping is a business strategy that combines live interaction with the efficiency of online shopping. To implement it, companies must integrate live streams into their digital platforms, allowing consumers to view products and interact in real-time with presenters or influencers.
The key to successful Live Shopping includes investing in good lighting to enhance video quality, focusing on specific audiences rather than large masses, and using engagement tools such as exclusive discounts and interactive question-and-answer sessions.
