His session was E-Commerce – Top 10 Tips for Success.

Between 2010 and today, total U.S. retail e-commerce sales are expected to increase from $167.3 billion to $347.3 billion. In 2014, e-commerce sales made up around 9.5 percent of total U.S. retail sales.

This session will share the top ten tips for brands in e-commerce — with perspective from multi-disciplinary teams, including Accounts, Technology and Creative. Tips include determining the following policies and more importantly, making them accessible: your payment gateway, tag obligations, shipping rates, return and exchange policies, privacy policies and terms and conditions. High-quality photos, prominent call to action buttons and additional features are imperative — based on the platform, many features are an added expense you’ll need to determine if necessary early on. After the audience understands how to get started, Olsen will demo a recent Phenomblue e-commerce site the firm has just built and released for Killer Instinct.
