The Ecommerce Playbook | Are Political Ads Killing Sales?: State of the Industry

In this month’s State of the Industry, we tackle some of the biggest questions facing ecommerce brands in 2024. Why are 7-figure stores seeing a slowdown in growth? How are political ad spending and shifting consumer behaviors affecting your bottom line? And most importantly, what can you do about it heading into the critical Q4 period?

Join our panel of experts as we break down the data behind the Direct-to-Consumer Confidence Index (DTCCI) and explore theories on why revenue growth is stalling. We’ll discuss the impact of the upcoming election, the growing trend of value driven consumers waiting for bigger discounts, and how large ecommerce brands are adjusting their strategies in a tighter, more competitive market.
