Why is now the best time for Resellers ?

With the economic crisis that followed the health crisis, many people have seen their income affected in a negative way. As a result, the overall spending is expected to decrease by 50% across many industries. But e-Commerce, on the contrary, has seen its sales skyrocket. Categories such as Groceries (14%), entertainment (13%), and household supplies have registered a growth in the double digits.
 

• How can this be explained ? 
  

As people in many countries found themselves in lockdown at home, they started spending more time online, finding ways to replace their normally in-person activities with online purchases. Apps download hit a record-breaking +37 Billion downloads in Q2 2020 (9.1 billion downloads on the App Store, 28.7 on Google Play).

Business apps and remote work-related apps are amongst the top. Zoom has become the go-to-meeting platform for meetings and the top app by download in the world. And even a new social reference. Who hasn’t seen a Zoom meme lately? ;)

Socializing has also moved to the digital world with group video chats or hangouts with the House Party app for example. 

Shopping apps and Health & Fitness are consistently growing and even passed social networking apps.

Around the world, companies have moved quickly to accommodate the massive shift to digital channels.
And as we've seen in the record-breaking number of apps downloaded in Q2 2020, digital is now mobile. 
Organizations looking to provide the best possible customer experience need to take advantage of mobile platforms today.

Companies that can offer digital solutions at competitive pricing and fast to deploy will definitely have an edge.
As a Reseller, for your clients, one of the most critical aspects of their marketing strategy is the mobile app.

As stated by McKinsey Customer experience "Every possible activity—from meals and groceries, to finance and education, to fitness—now has a digital or online equivalent. Nearly all organizations, whether traditional companies or start-ups are reorienting their business models to be more digital. It’s highly likely that consumers will prefer to use many of these digital offerings after the crisis. "


 

• Convenience: As businesses need to react quickly to adapt their offer, they are looking for solutions allowing them to be present online rapidly. Small shops are affected the most by the economic crisis. To stay afloat and ahead of the competition from large companies, they also need solutions that are affordable.

• Safety / Hygiene concerns: With COVID-19, health and safety concerns have become the number one focus for clients and companies alike. The former needing to protect both their clients and employees. Features like contactless/online payment, scheduled pickup times, or local deliveries to avoid crowded shops are essential while the health crisis continues.
