Introduction
2014 Luxury Interactive Benchmarking Study
Creating digital brand awareness, and adapting to consumers’ preferences continues to be
at the forefront of marketing campaigns for luxury brands. The C-suite at luxury brands is
fi nally acknowledging it is imperative to survive by offering more product online to compete
in the global eCommerce space. Luxury brands must connect digitally with their consumer via
personal touch as the consumer continues to turn to their “online” peers for opinions.
As such, now more than ever, dollars are being poured into technology to cater to—and
target—the online consumer.
Luxury Interactive has created the 2013 Benchmarking Study to further evaluate current
online retail and digital opportunities for luxury brands and professionals. This report
contains evaluations and insights of the 150 participants from the annual Luxury Interactive
conference held in September 2013. Professionals from companies such as Saks Fifth
Avenue, David Yurman, Viceroy Hotel, and more contributed to the survey’s results.
To Your Success,
