Omnichannel sales strategy

Strengthen your omnichannel sales strategy with shopper proof

Shoppers may discover your products on one channel - and purchase them on another. An effective omnichannel sales strategy keeps authentic shopper content visible throughout that journey. Bazaarvoice automatically distributes your UGC to retail partner pages, helping you replace empty listings with consistent social proof at scale.

The Challenge

The challenge of keeping retail product pages active

Reviews may build trust on your owned storefront while retail partner listings remain empty. Without a scalable distribution process, teams must manage separate uploads, formats, and portals for every retailer. These gaps can weaken shopper confidence, search visibility, conversion, and retail competitiveness. VALUABLE REVIEWS STAY SILOED High-performing reviews on your site remain invisible at other points of sale. THIN LISTINGS WEAKEN SHOPPER CONFIDENCE Products with few recent reviews can look less credible than competing listings. MANUAL DISTRIBUTION CAN’T KEEP PACE Portals, spreadsheets, and retailer-specific formats become harder to manage as catalogs grow.

Key takeaways

  • Reviews collected on your owned site cannot influence retail purchases when they remain trapped in one storefront.
  • Bazaarvoice’s unified Syndication Network distributes reviews, ratings, questions and answers, and visual UGC across 2,300+ global retail partners without manual uploads or spreadsheet management.
  • Strong, current review coverage can improve retail conversion and help protect products from losing visibility or placement during Product Line Reviews.
