About this listen
Join hosts Chuck Moxley and Nick Paladino as they talk with Nora Arzoumanian, Former E-commerce and Digital Marketing Director at Specialized Bicycle Components. Drawing from her experience launching Specialized's Canadian e-commerce platform during post-pandemic inventory challenges, Nora shares invaluable insights on building an online presence while balancing brick-and-mortar relationships, managing inventory allocation, and evolving influencer marketing strategies.
In This Episode:
- When launching e-commerce in an established retail business, focus on long-term commitment and educate internal stakeholders with data to overcome resistance to change.
- Start influencer marketing with quality over quantity - work with fewer, highly engaged partners who truly understand your brand rather than casting a wide net.
- For luxury brands, maintain brand value by focusing on your core market rather than trying to serve every price point and customer segment.
