Direct-to-consumer (D2C) for B2C and B2B manufacturers
Strategy partner and make-it-happen manager for success in the D2C business
D2C is one of the most relevant future topics for the marketing, sales, and service departments of B2C and B2B manufacturers, offering them new opportunities to build and shape long-term, loyal customer relationships and to achieve and shape direct revenue with their customers. In its power – but also in its complexity – it is much more of a new business model than “just” a new distribution channel. D2C can be crucial for maintaining competitiveness and developing growth opportunities – in times of economic growth, but especially in economic crises.
eStrategy Consulting advises B2C and B2B manufacturers on establishing or expanding their D2C strategies and guides them through the complexities of the associated planning, conceptualization, implementation, and transformations.
Our D2C clients include B2C and B2B manufacturers from various industries:
- Consumer Electronics
- Powertools
- Medical Technology
- Mechanical Engineering
- Toys
- Food
- Home & Garden
- Automobile Manufacturer
Through our profound expertise, we support manufacturers in all matters concerning D2C business models and the development, design, and monetization of unique relationships with their customers, for example:
- Business Potential: What business motivation should shape your D2C strategy?
- Value Proposition: How do my digital D2C touchpoints and my e-commerce become sufficiently relevant for customers?
- Customer Centricity: How do you truly align your D2C activities with the customer and their needs?
