4. Ensure seamless operations with headless commerce
In layman’s terms, the separation of the front end and back end of an eCommerce application is known as headless commerce. Through this setup, brands get the liberty to build whatever and however, they want. It facilitates brands to impart a rich customer experience.
An important attribute of Headless is the incorporation of APIs and experience managers. These resources help in building new functionality and experiences to engage maximum customers. While traditional eCommerce model makes it a challenge to incorporate latest innovations, headless commerce allows you to do all this and more with some simple codes and clicks. It has a shallow learning curve and everyone in your organization can access the front end and update it with no advanced skills.
With headless commerce, brands can easily control the elements that the users interact with. As a result, they can incorporate more creativity in the content they update on the websites. In addition, headless commerce is universally compatible with all devices and viewing formats. So, your website works seamlessly irrespective of the device it is accessed on. It also helps eCommerce businesses scale and reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO).
5. Management of multiple storefronts
Imagine you have several storefronts and one team that maintains all of them. With SFCC, you can manage all these storefronts as a single eCommerce site even if you have different products on each site. It also helps businesses that have brands encompassing multiple time zones, geographies, currencies, and languages.
For example: An apparel retailer can allow their customers to purchase from their adult and children’s sites. Also, an eCommerce store owner with a different target audience, like a book publisher for non-fiction books and fictional stories, can avoid crossover by using SFCC.
