Princeton, NJ, February 24, 2021 – New data from the digital marketing agency NetElixir suggests that 70%+ of online shoppers buy only once from an ecommerce site and never return; this is just one of many shocking statistics uncovered in the agency’s annual FACES eBook, released today. FACES features primary research into what causes this particular behavior and how online shopping is evolving. It dives deep into emerging trends brought on by the pandemic, as well as evolving social and digital initiatives.
The NetElixir Retail Intelligence Lab analyzed more than two million unique online customer paths-to-purchase, focusing on the behavior of high-value online shoppers. NetElixir data shows that high-value online shoppers account for more than 60% of total website purchases across all major industries. The eBook covers nine categories: B2B, Fashion and Apparel, Home Furnishing, Baby Care, Pet Supplies, Beauty and Cosmetics, Gifting, Tactical Wear and Tools.
“It is imperative that brand marketers understand the shifting shopping habits of their high-value customers,” said Udayan Bose, founder and CEO of NetElixir. “It is our hope that retail and brand marketers use FACES as a directional guide to compare their own high-value customer shopping insights with our category benchmarks to identify overlaps. They should use this data to create more efficient and effective campaigns.”
