Developed to integrate seamlessly with Shopify, Videeo enables shops to consolidate their relationship with customers by building a community and direct customer connection, therefore increasing conversions and maximising revenue. Moreover, the product aims to offer organic viral growth for a company’s customer base.
Videeo features
Videeo for Shopify provides a comprehensive suite of live selling features, including enabling merchants to live stream on their websites and social media channels with multi-casting and transactions on Facebook and Instagram. Moreover, the application allows guest and celebrity takeovers with several hosts or source video streaming to sell products directly from a retailer’s catalogue.
Other features include live reviews, a consolidated chat feed, a mini player for uninterrupted viewing across a website, and shoppable live replays that generate sales when not actively streaming. CommentSold also integrated an email and chat support functionality, as well as customer growth managers that provide insight on how to grow a business.
More information about live selling
According to
McKinsey, the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated customers’ need for more engaging shopping experiences, with 75% of US consumers testing new shopping methods due to economic pressure, store closing, and a shift in priorities.
Live selling has developed as a response to this change, driving retailers into engaging with customers in a safe, digital format that still retains the human element of in-person shopping. In the US, the live stream commerce market is projected to reach USD 25 billion by the end of 2023, as per Coresight Research.
Furthermore, live selling brings several benefits to retailers, including a more engaged audience, real-time purchases, lowered return rates, business scalability, and increased conversion rates. Large companies, such as Walmart and Sephora, have partnered with mainstream social media platforms, including TikTok and Facebook, to introduce this type of commerce to their customers.
