In the dynamic landscape of e-commerce, the implementation of innovative strategies transcends obstacles and goes beyond perfect competition, revealing a horizon brimming with possibilities and opportunities. This forward-thinking approach aligns with the imperative need to engage users on a deeper level, personalize each interaction uniquely, and incorporate artificial intelligence to guide informed decisions during the purchasing process.
In essence, this vision is a necessity for businesses to stand out and secure the preference of consumers in an ever-evolving market, and Ocean Drop clearly exemplifies this mindset.
Founded in 2016, Ocean Drop is a Brazilian company renowned in the realm of nutritional and sustainable products. Despite experiencing notable expansion, extending its reach nationwide, the store faced challenges in effectively targeting its audience with social proof, which ultimately affected its sales and, consequently, its position in the market.
It was based on this scenario that, at the end of the first semester of 2022, Ocean Drop established a strategic partnership with Vurdere, which has been a success ever since.
"We were looking for ways to display our customers' reviews on our pages, with the aim of strengthening the social proof around our brand and our products. We wanted to provide visitors to our store the opportunity to understand various opinions about the products before making a purchase. That's why we chose Vurdere, as the tool provides exactly what we are looking for." - João Becker | Customer Support Coordinator
