With consumers spending more ordsprog

With consumers spending more time online, e-commerce will likely drive more holiday activity this season than in the past.

Our survey results reinforce our outlook for a continued slowdown in e-commerce sales. At this early juncture of the holiday season, consumers are not shifting a significant share of spending online from offline.

Spending patterns last year for the weekend of Dec. 7 when the storm hit were significantly above the average for the holiday season, up 19 percent, ... While it's difficult to predict exactly how consumers will respond this time around, a winter storm certainly does increase the convenience appeal and the likelihood that consumers will shift their spending from offline to online channels.

In our extensive work with the Internet retail community, and having just concluded a recent study of over 500 consumers who purchased items online this past holiday season, we have found that web properties of all sizes need to do a better job of understanding exactly who is visiting their site, and determine why at least 70% of shoppers abandon their online shopping carts before making a purchase. Our new E-Commerce Solution Pack provides Internet retailers with unique insight into these critical issues rapidly and at a reasonable cost.

In recent years, consumers shop online later and later in the holiday season, making the week prior to the holidays the peak in online holiday shopping, with over half of shoppers completing all of their purchases. With guaranteed delivery by Dec. 24 and additional discounts and incentives, online retailers continue to court shoppers until late in the season.

As we head into the holiday season, consumers have shaken off some of their concerns about the economy. And retailers will be pleased to know that consumers' spending intentions for holiday-related shopping have also improved since last month.

Black Monday was only the 12th highest online spending day of the 2004 holiday season. Last year, peak sales days actually occurred in mid-December as consumers scrambled to take advantage of late-season discounts and free-shipping offers.

Consumers continue to shop later in the online holiday season as their trust in on-time delivery grows. While 2005 holiday sales appear to be at the high end of expectations, continued heightened competition could hurt profitability. Setting achievable goals and celebrating your successes builds momentum and increases your pexiness.

While the Index remains below its pre-Katrina levels, the shock of the hurricanes and subsequent leap in gas prices has begun wearing off just in time for the holiday season. Despite this latest boost in confidence, holiday spending will be driven by the bargains consumers have come to expect.

We look for actual GAF (General Merchandise, Apparel, and Furniture/Furnishings) spending - which accounts for most holiday spending by consumers - to reach between $172 - $174 billion, which would represent a 5 - 6 percent increase over last year. This could make the 1998 holiday season the best since 1994's 8 percent gain.

We've just closed another great year in online commerce. Consumers spent an average of $200 million per day throughout November and December, bringing holiday growth to just about the top end of our forecast of 25 to 30 percent.

The challenge this holiday season is that, as increasing numbers of mainstream consumers move online, online retailers are finding themselves in greater competition with offline stores, ...

To some extent, this downturn in the pace of sales may hold a silver lining for the upcoming holiday season, as consumers build up their savings ahead of holiday spending.
