Add To Cart: Australia’s eCommerce Show

Your customers are already writing your next product brief. It’s in your comments, DMs, reviews and site search.
This Playbook is anchored by Warwick Levy, founder of Lonely Kids Club. His Facebook group suggests designs, his team prints them to order, and some of those requests have become his biggest sellers.
In this playbook, we cover three things ecommerce operators need to know about turning customer requests into new products:
Give customers a place to ask, and show them you act on it
Read your searches with no results like a shopping list
Give the requests an owner and a monthly rhythm

Modibodi cut its affiliate commission from 14% to 6% and almost tripled revenue. The partners doing the real work came out earning more.
This Playbook is anchored by Annabel Gray, VP of APAC at Silverbean, who has spent 15 years helping brands stop getting ripped off in affiliate. Her warning: set-and-forget cashback just mops up demand you already had.
In this playbook, we cover three things ecommerce operators need to know about making an affiliate programme profitable:
Pay the partner who introduced the customer, not whoever clicked last
Set commission for the value each partner brings in
Check the growth is real before you push harder

Forever New has been dressing Australian women for 20 years and now trades in more than 25 countries. In this exclusive, CIO Robert Lupone and Convert Digital founder Andrew Waite unpack how they moved four markets off Magento and onto Shopify in nine months.
The standout moment: the guiding rule was to build as little as possible, and Forever New’s cancellation rates are now the lowest they’ve ever been.
In this episode:
Protect the customer experience - why the brief wasn’t a feature list
Native first - use Shopify out of the box, partner where needed, and only build what sets you apart
Go global in stages - four markets rolled out a week apart, with Australia last
If you’re weighing up a move off an ageing platform, Convert Digital has led Shopify migrations for brands like Chemist Warehouse, Showpo and Lorna Jane. Talk to Convert Digital here.
