VISEO: experts in deploying the Salesforce B2B Commerce solution

 

Are you looking for a high-performance e-commerce solution to facilitate your customers' online purchases? Salesforce has redefined e-commerce solutions to provide you with CRM expertise and optimised order management. The editor provides e-commerce solutions to help companies effectively manage their online store and improve the customer experience. In this article, VISEO explains the advantages of the Salesforce B2B Commerce solution.

 

What challenges do B2B e-commerce companies face today?

 

The global e-commerce market is experiencing unprecedented growth. According to the latest Grand View research report, the online B2B industry was worth 6.88 million dollars in 2021*. Prospective research predicts a 19% year-on-year growth rate between 2022 and 2030.

 

With this increasing demand from companies, digitalising B2B processes for online sales is becoming a key issue. All B2B companies have one thing in common, they're seeking digital solutions that fit with their brand and help nurture client relationships.

 

In practical terms, any company that's in the process of digitalisation needs to increase its online visibility and deploy a strategy that:

 

- Expands its customer acquisition media by using omnichannel strategies.

- Reinforces its online purchasing service so that it is accessible at any time.

 

In the same way, online sales should aim to create customer loyalty by offering a personalised framework for purchases with a panel of dedicated services.

 

- A dedicated company area where the client can find past purchases

- Additional or promotional offers

- A range of packages and products

- Restocking of regularly ordered products

- Spare parts available in bulk or by the unit

- Automated order processing

 

What digitalisation solutions should B2B e-commerce implement when faced with such systemic challenges?
