Omnichannel Case Study: 2012 Olympics

Future Learnings and Considerations :• Prepare list to market

items as soon as possible• Coordinate messaging

across all sites to drive additional revenue

• Consider bias of specialised products across the site, instead of custom rec types

• Personalisation types of ‘Hot Sellers’ or ‘Trending’ could also drive results
