About 10.10
WHAT IS 10.10
10.10 is an annual, social commerce shopping festival that connects consumers with brands and retailers to jump-start the holiday shopping season with special deals and exclusive offerings.
This year marks the 4th annual 10.10 shopping festival, which builds on the success of the prior three years, where Coresight brought together more than 100 brands and retailers to provide exclusive deals via livestreaming technology and shopping experiences.
THE BENEFITS OF SOCIAL COMMERCE
The festival this year is focused on showcasing social commerce best practices to enhance engagement with consumers and create a repeatable new revenue stream for retailers. Social commerce provides a channel for retail companies to meet fast-changing consumer demand—but, to capitalize on the burgeoning social commerce opportunity, they need to offer valuable content, leverage internal staff and external talent to host events, and establish a live shopping strategy that takes into account platforms and frequency of sessions.
Social commerce is a key component of our outlook for the future of retail. As brand and retailers face an uncertain economic environment following the pandemic, they are reinventing their business to stimulate demand and drive conversion. Cost-effective marketing channels such as livestream shopping and social commerce are ideal channels for brands and retailers to not only drive revenue, but also create deeper connections with their consumers, enhance brand and product education, reduce return rates and increase customer satisfaction.
