#8 Stop blaming the frontend: Your product data might be the real problem


Listen Later

Product data was once dismissed as a back-office administrative task. Not anymore. Today, it is the deciding factor in your brand’s reputation and the overall customer experience. 



Amel Gaily joins Hanna-Mari Saurama, Senior Advisor, Product Experience at Solteq to discuss the chaos, and the potential, behind product information. From the "Excel wars" to the rise of digital product passports, they explore why high-quality product data has shifted from a luxury to a critical competitive advantage.



They dive into the consequences of overlooking even the smallest details in a transparent digital landscape, explaining why radical transparency converts "window shoppers" into buyers more effectively than storytelling alone. They also examine how corporate responsibility has evolved into a powerful new driver for growth.



Whether you work in retail, manufacturing, or marketing or you’re simply curious about what happens before you hit the "Add to Cart" button, this conversation will transform how you perceive the value and impact of product data.
