The coronavirus pandemic is forcing eCommerce businesses to rethink the store’s UI, design, and make some sparking development for the upcoming events and activities in the holiday haul. In short, make room for the shoppers who strictly maintain distance and avoid public places for the holiday celebration.<\/p>\n

Adapting to restricted travel, increased online shopping, and families not getting together as normal means mapping tactics and navigating campaigns where they are: at home. It means spending more on digital platforms. Your eCommerce store needs a makeover before the Black Friday sale<\/a> and you being a holidaymaker can plan its design well in advance.<\/p>\n

Holiday prep includes website decoration, applying attractive colorful themes, banners with greetings, and promotional coupons that can drive them crazy. To convert window shoppers<\/a>, fun elements like a gamified fortune wheel popup will work. You can even sell custom products on your store with unique designs, personalized gift ideas, or offer gift cards to indecisive buyers who want to give something to their loved ones.<\/p>\n

In this article I will be focusing on two modules: The Spin and Win Fortune Wheel<\/a> and The Store Decoration Module <\/a>that can give your boring eCommerce website pages a striking look and impactful design.<\/p>\n
