Product Description
WebLegend takes e-commerce to the next level by replacing the one-Web-fits-all approach with a dynamic, personalized Web experience. With an average of 97 out of every 100 shoppers abandoning their online shopping carts, e-retailers are missing a massive opportunity to close transactions with the visitors who are already on their Web sites. Using the same techniques proven to work in face-to-face selling, WebLegend increases conversion rates up to 50 percent by providing each shopper with the information they need to complete the transaction.
Market Opportunity
According to Forrester Research, U.S. online retail reached $175 billion in 2007 and is projected to grow to $335 billion by 2012. Internet Retailer reports total retail in the U.S. in 2007 grew at 3.8 percent, e-retailing grew at 21.8 percent and the top 500 e-retailers grew at an impressive 22.0 percent.
DEMO Says
For many reasons, online shopping still isn't what it should be. Countless companies have tried to crack the nut but we really like the approach of 7 Billion People. WebLegend recognizes the psychology behind buying behaviors and is aligning content to fit an individual's personal shopping profile. Where you click on a site, how you search for an item, how you react to an ad - it's all factored into a sophisticated analysis that presents you with a shopping page that just makes sense.
