#GoingD2C Webinars:
Register Now To Learn How To Take Your D2C Brand Global

There is no denying that ecommerce, particularly the D2C model, has grown tremendously in recent months due to the lockdown and the pandemic-induced fear of buying from physical stores and retail outlets. In the first six months of this year alone, the contribution of ecommerce to retail rose to 4.5% compared to 1.5% in the past three years.

With the world moving towards online selling and retail automation, even traditional brands and small and medium businesses have started selling their products directly to consumers. Reaching audiences online has never been easier, thanks to the proliferation of ecommerce platforms and marketing tools. However, there are still a lot of bottlenecks for new brands and this is where enablers such as PayPal and Shopify are playing a huge role.

Powered by these giants, the third #GoingD2C webinar will help businesses understand:

• The emerging cross-border ecommerce opportunities
• Best practices and recommendations for scaling across geographies
• Challenges in setting up global ecommerce stores, payments, logistics and compliance
• Tricks and strategies for generating demand, marketing and customer engagement
