    MASTERCLASS
    Monday 02 June \/\/ 15:00-15:45 CEST

    Conversion <> conversation: redefining the role of storytelling in commerce journeys<\/em><\/strong>

    Consumers today crave brands that are bold, expressive, and altogether more human. This shift has created a particular set of challenges for consumer brands, which\u2013to remain relevant, and successful\u2013need to move beyond a \u201csell to everyone\u201d mentality and instead connect with consumers on a deeper level.

    How does that translate into commerce experiences? It\u2019s all about storytelling; because creating conversation with customers will drive long term conversion.

    J\u00e4germeister has done exactly this, defining a future-proofed path that ensures the legacy brand stays competitive; seamlessly combining commerce, brand and loyalty within its new digital home (built on Shopify). In this session, we\u2019ll explore why this approach was non-negotiable, key learnings from their journey, and the dividends it is paying.
