During the pandemic, e-commerce sales surged, and it may result in permanently higher sales for the e-commerce sector.<\/li>\n<li>The ten top DTC advertisers: SmileDirectClub, DoorDash, 23andMe, Poshmark, UNTUCKit, Touch of Modern, Hims, Casper Sleep, Stitch Fix, ThirdLove,<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>AJ Khanijow\u2019s 5 Keys to Direct to Consumer (DTC) Success<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Develop a Great Brand<\/strong>. A company\u2019s brand is it\u2019s promise to its customers. The brand tells them what they can expect from the company\u2019s products and services, and it differentiates the company from its competitors&#8217;. While some DTC companies skimp on branding in the start-up phase, the best DTC companies develop strong brands.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Create a Memorable Customer Experience<\/strong>. Whether they are buying online or retail, customers increasingly expect a great experience. The best DTC businesses have learned to create a great consumer experience. DTC brands can most effectively build relationships with consistent yet personalized communications, delivered throughout the customer\u2019s lifecycle.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Data, Data, Data<\/strong>. Every DTC firm recognizes the value of customer and marketing data. In AJ\u2019s experience, many DTC firms struggle to develop good supply chain analytics. As a result, some DTC brands struggle with sales forecasting and product shortages.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Prepare to Sell on Every Channel<\/strong>. Many of the successful direct to consumer businesses have begun selling in traditional retail stores. While this may seem counter-intuitive, the businesses are responding to the needs of the consumer. Conversely, older brands (pre-DTC) are beginning to adopt DTC offerings. The bottom line, companies need to offer their products on the channels where consumers want to buy.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Select the Right Fulfillment Partner<\/strong>. Hiring the right e-commerce fulfillment company is key because that fulfillment partner could be the difference between success and failure. The fulfillment partner can greatly impact customer satisfaction because they own the order fulfillment process (order processing, pick and pack, shipping, documentation, delivery, and if necessary, returns). Fulfillment is just the starting point. DTC brands often need expertise and service beyond warehousing, fulfillment, and distribution. The right fulfillment partner should be capable of providing whatever value-added service is needed for the brand to succeed and grow. Look for a company that can assist with the following services: procurement, sourcing, manufacturing, and fabrication, assembly, and packaging.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><strong>Learn More About the 5 Keys to Direct to Consumer (DTC) Success<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/akhanijow\/\">AJ Khanijow<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fulfyld.com\/\">Fulfyld<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thelogisticsoflogistics.com\/repost-selecting-an-e-commerce-fulfillment-partner-with-aj-khanijow\/\">Selecting an E-commerce Fulfillment Partner with AJ Khanijow<\/a><\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Logistics of Logistics Podcast<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>If you enjoy the podcast, please leave a positive review, subscribe, and share it with your friends and colleagues.<\/li>\n<li>The Logistics of Logistics Podcast:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.google.com\/?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly90aGVsb2xwb2RjYXN0LmxpYnN5bi5jb20vcnNz\">Google<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/the-logistics-of-logistics-podcast\/id1409735368\">Apple<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thelogisticsoflogistics.com\/\">Castbox<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/2R6BcnTSREZ7fOx9EIoI36?si=9SxorwsJTOicUq7hOEQaYQ\">Spotify<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.stitcher.com\/podcast\/dancewaves\/the-logistics-of-logistics\">Stitcher<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/player.fm\/series\/the-logistics-of-logistics-podcast\">PlayerFM<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/tun.in\/pi548\">Tunein<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.podbean.com\/podcast-detail\/dtyrb-7364a\/The-Logistics-of-Logistics-Podcast\">Podbean<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.owltail.com\/podcast\/23776-The-Logistics-of-Logistics-Podcast\/episodes\">Owltail<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/directory.libsyn.com\/shows\/view\/id\/thelolpodcast\">Libsyn<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/overcast.fm\/itunes1409735368\/the-logistics-of-logistics-podcast\">Overcast<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":4789,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1012,991,811,988,711,709,710],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5728","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-logistics","category-podcast","category-selecting-a-3pl-2","category-supply-chain","category-technology","category-transportation","category-warehousing"],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/www.thelogisticsoflogistics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/the-lol-podcast-1200x600_a.jpg","author_info":{"display_name":"joelynch","author_link":"https:\/\/www.thelogisticsoflogistics.com\/author\/joelynch\/"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>5 Keys to Direct to Consumer (DTC) Success with AJ Khanijow | The Logistics of Logistics<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"In this podcast interview, AJ Khanijow\u00a0and\u00a0Joe Lynch discuss the 5 keys to direct to consumer (DTC) success.
