Challenges with growth for eCommerce and the D2C brands
With each passing day, eCommerce is growing big across India at a pace of 25% CAGR and it is fuelled further with the penetration of smart phones and cheaper mobile internet access. As per IBEF research, this growth accounts merely for 9-10% of USD 1.5 Trillion in Indian Retail Market. Post pandemic most of the top consumer brands suffered losses because of slump in retail/online sales and most significantly due to their dependency on sellers like Amazon, Flipkart, PayTM etc. After suffering huge losses, these brands are now focusing to build their own 'online distribution channel' so that they could reach Directly to Customer (D2C) across the country. The easiest last mile delivery and building a shopping portal in few clicks has promoted the D2C rush which results in hundreds of eCommerce portals in market.
Though building online portal and logistics handling is been made easy but it takes time, financial resources with skilled digital marketing strategies to build brand presence among the crowded online and social media platforms to ultimately reach the targeted customers. Expensive online search and social media Ads makes it difficult for D2C brands having limited budget to compete in the market. Moreover, it does not assures guaranteed conversion because of majority search, which involves 6 inch mobile phone screen, has already occupied first page ranking and top search results with Ads from big players. So, it makes very difficult for such D2C Brands to rank organically.
