Live Shopping in Europe is just starting. Accelerated by the pandemic, current social climate, and forecasted to make up 20% of e-commerce by 2026<\/strong><\/a>, Live Shopping offers an authentic, personalized, relevant in real-time experience.<\/strong> Live Shopping allows consumers to interact with brands and shop from the comfort of their own homes without leaving the event. It provides the in-store experience at home, the desired product at the tap of a fingertip, creating instant gratification, time sensitivity, and boosting connection with the brand. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Starting in China and continuing in the United States, the Live Shopping trend in Europe looks promising<\/strong> and can only move forward, with <\/span>86%<\/a><\/strong> of social media consumers purchasing products via Livestream in Europe<\/strong><\/span>. Moreover, 82% of social media users<\/strong> <\/span>who bought a product from Livestream Shopping on social media find it convenient to shop during Livestream shopping events and <\/span>70%<\/a><\/strong> prefer Livestream shopping to other types of social media shopping<\/strong>. Gen-Z and Millennials lead the trend, with <\/span>40% of TikTok GenZ<\/strong><\/span><\/a> users buying a product from a Live Shopping event, but other generations are catching up too.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As Live Shopping is still in the early stages of development and competition is limited, it represents an opportunity for brands to set the tone and benefit from higher exposure, reach and sales, as early adopters within social media platforms receive rewards easier and faster.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

What is Live Shopping?<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Live Shopping is part of the #socialcommerce movement and refers to purchasing a product from a Livestream video hosted on social media or Livestream platform. How does it work? Quite simple. The brand launches a Livestream or Live Shopping Event on a social media platform and showcases a product that customers can buy in real-time by clicking a reaction button without leaving the event.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In terms of platforms, Instagram and TikTok<\/strong> are leading the way amongst the younger generation, followed by YouTube, Facebook, Amazon Live, and live streaming platforms. While both platforms require a business account to host a Livestream and Shopping event, on Instagram the shop and checkout option must be set up while TikTok requires the brand to have at least 1000 followers. The brand must link the online Livestream with the e-commerce store or desired product and pin the link or shoppable button<\/a><\/strong> to the screen to be available for the consumer during the event. The average Livestream duration is 30 minutes to 1 hour<\/strong>, while the frequency should be decided according to the audience’s preferences. As a guide, it is recommended to post at least once per month or once per week<\/strong> on Instagram, and more often on TikTok, as TikTok brands are hosting 2-3 live videos a day<\/strong>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Live Shopping can be implemented from 2 perspectives. From the Brand Perspective<\/strong>, the brand hosts Livestream on social media platforms by either having a brand representative as a host or collaborating with influencers. From the Influencer Perspective<\/strong>, the influencer hosts the Live Shopping event by recommending, trying, testing, or mentioning the brand and the product.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

How it can help Your Brand?<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Live Shopping offers 5 main benefits<\/strong> and opportunities for brands.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Drive brand awareness, reach & engagement. <\/span><\/b>The authentic, real-time interaction with the brand drives brand reach and deepens the emotional connection with the audience and community, generating positive word of mouth. It allows the brand to add human elements into play and build that sense of community, making the audience and customer feel valued and important, as the brand brings a personalized in-store like experience to them at their own convenience, thus boosting customer satisfaction. Moreover, partnering with an influencer doubles brand exposure, as the influencers will notify and redirect their followers to the Live Shopping Event done in partnership with the brand, thus boosting brand reach, traffic, and awareness, as it enables the brand to be discovered by other users and make a positive impression on the spot. According to McKinsey, Live Shopping Events increase engagement <\/span><\/strong><\/span>by 20%<\/span><\/strong>.<\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Generate customer insights.<\/span><\/b> It offers the opportunity to ask and receive real-time and genuine feedback from the audience about their taste, product, or brand impression and hold a conversation with them on this topic. Moreover, customers can also ask questions, thus allowing the brand to understand their desires, needs, or concerns. Then brands can use the insights gained for future product development, events, and marketing campaigns and address users‘ issues in a real-time manner, therefore boosting brand connection and image<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Boost shopping decision-making.<\/span><\/b> Being influenced by genuine brand interaction, new information about the product, influencers‘ reviews, limited-time offers, and comments of the audience while being driven by peer pressure and the fear of missing out pushes the customer to engage in impulsive buying and purchase the product on the spot or after the event.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Low Production Cost<\/span><\/b>. As no additional equipment or extended experience is needed to host a Live Shopping Event on social media, the brand does not have to cover additional costs. The focus on mobile devices and smartphones is extremely convenient for both brands and users, and authentic and genuine content drives.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

What are the <\/span>Trending Content<\/span> Ideas?<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The most popular content amongst Live Shopping Events and Livestreams are tutorials, product reviews, interviews, behind-the-scenes, product launches, Q&A, and mini-series.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tutorials<\/strong> showcasing how to use a product while sharing information, tips, and genuine love for the product and the brand educate and inspire viewers. Product Reviews<\/strong> featuring trying and testing a product while offering genuine feedback and recommendations, especially when delivered by an influencer, can boost brand interest, trust, and emotional connection, drive positive word of mouth, and generate actionable insights for product development.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Interviews<\/strong> held with an influencer, key opinion leader, expert, or brand ambassador from the relevant segment and target audience of the brand provide educational, genuine, and relatable content and information for the consumer and audience, thus driving trust, traffic, and awareness. Behind the Scenes<\/strong> videos such as showing how the product is made and packaged and the inside of a news story, product, and campaign build brand awareness, trust, and emotional connection, allowing the brand to be seen as transparent and reliable.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

How you <\/span>can implement Live Shopping for your brand?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Just start. Firstly, it is important to define the brand objectives and target audience<\/strong>, as it will allow the brand to decide what category or product to promote in the Livestream. Secondly, plan and develop the content<\/strong> for the event such as storyline, host, script, and type of content. For instance, you can launch a new product and collaborate with influencers who try, test, and review the product together sharing information and tips. Another idea would be to host a mini-series of Livestreams focusing on different products from the same product line. Giveaways, limited offers, and discount codes are a few tactics you could also implement during the Livestream to keep the consumer engaged and drive purchase. Lastly, track performance and analyze your Live Shopping streams<\/strong> to test and understand what Livestream strategy and content your audience enjoys the best, and thus, it\u2019s more suitable for your brand.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
