Higher profit margins are not the only benefit of D2C. You may find that the most valuable asset of your new business model is customer data that you did not have access to before.<\/h2>\n

Why D2C?<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”2\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1611249278937{padding-left: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text]Direct-to-consumer (D2C or DTC) sales are on the rise. By selling products directly to end customers, manufacturers can eliminate intermediaries altogether or create an additional, complementary sales channel.<\/p>\n

The main reason B2B companies are turning to D2C is to increase their own margins and thus generate higher profits. More importantly, D2C gives them access to a wealth of customer data they did not have access to before.<\/p>\n

Customer
\nData<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”2\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1611249278937{padding-left: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text]D2C enables you to get data directly from consumers and gain better insight into their buying behavior, preferences, and attitudes. You can use this to improve customer service, optimize marketing campaigns, or refine your offering, for example.<\/p>\n

To capture customer data, you need to equip your portal with the right features and content to encourage as many user interactions as possible. In the end, however, the one who knows how to use the collected data wins. And that, of course, requires appropriate technologies and solutions to handle tasks such as data integration<\/a>, data quality<\/a>, data governance<\/a> or BI and advanced analytics<\/a>.<\/p>\n
