Today’s Guest Casey Golden
So much has changed in the world of eCommerce in just a short space of time - from how companies feel about selling online and how consumers choose to shop online.
Surprisingly, very little has changed in terms of high end fashion. For consumers in “high touch” retail, where you find high end brands that aren’t price driven, it all comes down to desire, brand-identity, guilty pleasures and splurging.
LuxLock brings the concierge service that consumers equate with high cost. They expect personalized, on-demand service where they aren’t left waiting around for someone to get back to them but not automated. Luxlock works hard to understand the needs of their customers in order to provide an experience where trust and intrinsic value are established and built on.
Even though you may not be a luxury brand with a sales strategy like LuxLock, there are lessons that can be adapted to a self serve environment. The key lesson being: understand and value of your customer. Getting inside your customer's head and understanding them and their experience will help your business thrive online.

At the eCommerce Cohort, we're committed to helping you deliver eCommerce WOW through our lightweight, guided monthly Sprint that cycles through all the key areas of eCommerce.
What happens in a Sprint?
Just like this eCommerce Podcast episode, each Sprint is themed-based. So using this topic of Everything You Need To Know About Subscription eCommerce as an example - here's how it would work:
- Sprint Theme: Marketing.
- Week One: Coaching Session -> Marketing.
- Week Two: Expert Workshop -> Everything You Need To Know About Subscription eCommerce.
- Week Three: Live Q&A with our experts and coaches. This is a time to ask questions and contribute your thoughts and ideas so we can all learn together.
- Week Four: Submit your work for feedback, support, and accountability. Yup, all of this is to provide you with clear, actionable items you can implement in your eCommerce business or department! It's not about learning for the sake of learning but about making those constant interactions that keep you moving forward and ahead of your competitors. Sharing your work helps cement your understanding, and accountability enables you to implement like nothing else!
Who can join the eCommerce Cohort?
Anyone with a passion for eCommerce. If you're an established eCommercer already, you'll get tremendous value as it will stop you from getting siloed (something that your podcast host, Matt Edmundson, can attest to!).
If you're just starting out in eCommerce, we have a series of Sprints (we call that a Cycle) that will help you get started quicker and easier.
Why Cohort
Founder and coach Matt Edmundson started the Cohort after years of being in the trenches with his eCommerce businesses and coaching other online empires worldwide. One of Matt's most potent lessons in eCommerce was the danger of getting siloed and only working on those areas of the business that excited him - it almost brought down his entire eCommerce empire. Working on all aspects of eCommerce is crucial if you want to thrive online, stay ahead of your competitors and deliver eCommerce WOW.
