B2B e-commerce with Julia Runfeldt from Spot On - a part of Exsitec

What is key to B2B business success according to our Solution Partner Spot On?

We asked a selected few of our Solution Partners to give us their view on the requirements and best practices for modern B2B commerce and also asked them to give us a prediction for the future. 

Let's hear what Julia Runfeldt, Head of marketing on Spot On has to say.

 

What are the three most important things to consider in B2B e-commerce?

  1. Structure and enrichment of your product data. Many companies still work with everything in excel files, juggle information in dropbox, have non-updated pdf files and business systems that do not allow enriching product descriptions.
  2. Make sure your integrations run smoothly between internal and external systems. The reward for such an investment will not only be a lower risk for human errors but also avoiding unnecessary manual work.
  3. Get all employees on board! Act on data by interviewing your customers about what they want instead of getting stuck in “that’s the way we’ve always done it.”

What are the three strongest trends within B2B-commerce? 

  1. Generational change in B2B buyers – the millennials are increasingly avoiding human contact in their research and when they make orders. Make sure you catch them online in several different channels.
  2. More and more companies choose to approach the end customer directly, perhaps not for the entire range of products but for limited editions, spare parts, sale items etc. A perfect way to start testing e-commerce!
  3. Configurators combined with 3D drawings to visualize product and results.

Give us some of the unique advantages of your B2B-storefront!

  1. The market's best CMS (Umbraco) combined with the market's best e-commerce solution with built-in PIM (Norce Storm) ensures unlimited flexibility, high user experience and a long life span.
  2. An already made storefront stuffed with all the necessary elements for B2B commerce that is easy to customize with customer specific functionality and design. Based on our long experience within the e-commerce field we can guarantee that all of the functions are what most companies need from the start.
  3. Flexible license model allows you to start easily with a website where you show off your products and gradually expand with customer portal, integrations, and e-commerce.
