What are the most effective strategies recommended by eCommerce marketing firms?

  1. Generative engine optimization (GEO) 
    As retail websites witnessed a 4,700% rise in traffic via AI assistants between 2024 and 2025, visibility within zero-click generative summaries has become a primary driver for top-of-funnel customer acquisition. 
  2. Augmented reality (AR) visualization 
    Brands who have enriched their sites with AR-based product visualization report that return rates related to sizing and fit issues have declined by over 20%. 
  3. User generated content (UGC) 
    92% of consumers trust peer-recommended products over brand ads, and product pages featuring customer videos or photos see a 161% improvement in conversion rates. 
  4. Live commerce 
    Live shopping events on TikTok and Instagram report conversion rates of nearly 30%, which is 10x higher than traditional eCommerce formats.
