Joris Kroese further explained the important values of Iceleads to Taiwan's own brand names. It is very often that consumers use manufacturers' official websites to find complete and reliable product information. "78% of online shoppers visit the brand website during their purchase decision making process" according to Forrester research. Many manufacturers do not sell directly or neglect to show retail offers for a product however. So consumers find their product of desire, but are forced to abandon the brand website to search for purchase options elsewhere. Manufacturers, won't be able to understand what these prospects would do after researching their websites? Did they continue their search, did they visit the (online) store, did they continue their purchase, did they buy a competitive product, or at which retailer's did they buy the product? Many manufacturers don't understand the consumer behavior without having insights into consumers buying habits. Iceleads tracks the consumer throughout its online journey and provides brands with actionable insights and analytics. This enables brands to optimize their sales processes and marketing effectiveness.
Iceleads aims to provide Taiwan's brands with a complete value chain.
