How COVID19 is transforming e-commerce
Jean Criss
What I’ve learned most during this worldwide pandemic is to focus on positivity, with intention on strong mind, body and spirit. Good health and wellness, staying connected with friends, family and business colleagues, and most of all, not letting things get you down has been extremely important during this critical time.
COVID19 has no doubt changed our ways. A total work/life balance in upheaval. A new way for people to conduct their personal shopping experience and perform any work for that matter. Technology continues to play a key role in this process as is focus and perseverance.
After the @home lull set-in with our ‘new normal’ home/work/personal lifestyles, you either adjusted or you climbed the walls. Perhaps both, but what may set you apart from others, like a new startup brand, is how you manage your time with resilience. I have always learned to stay abreast of trends, marketplace changes, self-educate and self-motivate. During this recent Coronavirus, I took to my laptop and participated in many educational webinars and seminars to learn about new trends, designs and technologies including AI, artificial intelligence.
AI in the Fashion Market is pegged for robust expansion throughout 2028. Stellar global growth is anticipated. One of the biggest driving factors will be consumer demand for a superior personalized shopping experience. With the help of AI technology, brands and distributors can provide the required customization according to the data insights. Such customization helps in building up the brand value and, also, creating a strong sense of loyalty among users. Naturally, the growth of AI in the fashion market is surging with this developing trend.*
On the other hand, there has also been an increasing demand for inventory management. AI and other inventory management tools and suppliers can aid in the advancement of your brand here too.
As I wrote in “My Pain Woke Me Up: LIVE Your Dreams”, a story about taking big ideas and putting them into PLAY, as I did with CRISSCROSS Intimates - a LUXE post-surgical intimate apparel line, I strive to stay ahead of the market with new innovations that can enhance a consumer’s shopping experience.
Recently, I signed on new marketplace partners to assist with the inventory management and product distribution which will allow me, as the founder of a contemporary brand, to focus on delivering new and exciting products. Another assessment has been with AI, currently in development with a trial underway, to introduce this year. While these partners help support your B2C shopping experience, these new initiatives will free up my time for new B2B marketplace customers including wholesalers, distributors and retail and healthcare companies, and for product design and development. I’m excited to put into PLAY the manufacturing of new USPTO patented styles, to share with the post-surgical and breast cancer community at large -- continuing to support our mission to make a woman or man Feel Confident and Look Beautiful or Handsome wearing our contemporary, colorful brand.
