How To Use Your Ecommerce Branding

No matter what line of business you're in, your branding is one of your most important assets. It sets you apart and helps your audience recognize you across all platforms. However, if you're in the eCommerce space your branding becomes even more crucial. It will be what builds an engaging audience and makes connections when you may not always be able to make those personal connections yourself.

Here are our best branding tips every Ecommerce should incorporate.

01. Tell your story

Buyers love investing in a brand with a story they can get behind. Find the space on your socials or online storefront to tell your audience: why you are here to service them, what inspired you to launch your brand or the big vision for the business.

Sharing your personal story is a great way to make an impactful connection with your customers and establish a layer of trust that will make purchasing from you worth something more than the product they will receive.

02. Take a stance

The same way your personal story can draw in customers is the same way taking a stance on something can. What do we mean by this? It's really about what your brand values are. In what ways do your brand values connect with your customers?

There are tons of ways for eCommerce to take a stance on something their customers can take pride in. Whether that be sustainably outsourcing your products, using eco-friendly materials, or even donating a part of your proceeds to a cause you value. We encourage you to take some time to figure out what your brand's values are and find ways you can capitalize on them.

03. Become a trendy version of you

One of the hardest parts of running an eCommerce business is finding ways to stand out from the others in your space while still being authentic to your brand. It's easy to feel like you have to stay on top of every trend out there to get noticed. While you should consider those trends, don't let them morph into what your brand becomes. Why? Because trends are always changing. The only thing you can be sure is consistent is what feeling you want your brand to express when your customers visit your online space. There is a sweet spot in being trendy while still being authentic. Once you’ve found it you'll be able to reach your ideal customers and catch the attention of others who may not naturally be interested.

04. Utilizing social media

This seems like an obvious thing to do in today's world, but utilizing your online space will help you see tons of growth and make connections you may not expect. An eCommerce business can not solely survive with an online storefront alone. You have to show up and show out to your potential customers and familiarize them with your brand. Use your branding consistently across all platforms and strategically design it the way you would your website. It makes a stronger impact than you may think.
