March 30, 2017March 30, 2017 by LerLer Chan

iPrice Malaysia helps consumers in:

discover items that consumers need
efficiently compare prices between online stores
take advantages of online coupons (PS: more discount, the wallet will be more merrier)
adding great value to online shipping experience

E-Commerce shop of my choice: Tesco Online

Tesco Online is listed as number 2 among top 10 eCommerce sites by big retailers in Malaysia. It is considered the first pioneer of online groceries site in Malaysia. As a working adult (mother-to-be-soon), Tesco Online is a great help for my house chores. I love their delivery services and payment delivery service. Additional to it, the delivery man help us to carry the shopping bag to the porch. It is such a great help for my elderly parent.

Potential Issues Faced by Tesco Online

#1 Inconsistent Product Images

Image speak louder than word. It is very important for consumer to view the product image. Although the product detail written in uppercase and bigger font size, image can attract consumer to make decision more easier.

#2 Unclear Glossary Term

Too many unknown terms in the menu. May be it is my English proficiency problem too. I have no clue on the difference between brown crusty loaves and healthy crusty loaves. I do love to see a small image when I mouse over the term.

#3 Slow Page Loading

Tesco Online page load insight by Google

The page load of Tesco Online is relatively slow.

Strategies for Tesco Online

1) Improve or Insert More Product Images

A product photo is worth a thousand online sales. ! extracted from Volusion

The statement above has explained. Consumers are more easier to be attracted by image. The better the image quality, detail information about the product, the easier and shorter time consumer can make the buying decision.

2) Improve Page Loading Speed

Tesco Online can improve the eCommerce site by following suggested summary provided by Google or other similar web analytic tool.

Conclusion

A recent study done by EcommerceMilo showed that only 6% consumers research groceries online then purchase online. 56% consumers prefer to research online, then purchase offline. On the other hand, Singapore share similar demographic information as Malaysia has a significant demand of online grocery over the year. To add on, according to Nielsen study in 2015, willingness to use digital retailing options in the future is the highest in Asia-Pacific, Africa/ Middle East and Latin America regions. Hopefully, Tesco Online and iPrice Malaysia can catch up with the growth of online grocery shopping trend soon.

Happy Birthday to Lazada Malaysia 2017

March 21, 2017March 21, 2017 by LerLer Chan

What I love about Lazada Malaysia?

Lazada Malaysia is a well-established e-commerce website among Malaysian. When my boss requests me to plan an event budget, I can get almost every products’ price on Lazada website. For instance, our company need to find 2 USB charging stations. Just by typing in the keywords, the website compares different charging stations ( in term of price, specifications and customers’ reviews) from different brands. Lazada helps to save my time to generate the comparison result and making the final decision.

Additional to it, I don’t like to drive and find parking lot just to buy a few items. Lazada provides delivery to door service. The delivery service is quite reliable and safe. I always able to track the item from website, mobile app or SMS.

Top 3 products from Lazada Malaysia

#1 Diapers

#2 Lazada Baby

#3 USB Storage

Happy Birthday to Lazada Malaysia!!
