Add To Cart: Australia’s eCommerce Show

Bianca Romano Smith from VRG GRL: The Role of Google, TikTok and Meta for Fashion | #417


Listen Later

In this episode of Add To Cart, we are joined by Bianca Romano Smith, Ecommerce and Digital Manager at VRG GRL, which started life as a retail store in the Brisbane Arcade almost 17 years ago and has grown alongside its sibling founders. After moving online, VRG GRL has more recently shifted from a multi-brand online retail model to a dedicated in-house label. Bianca joined the VRG GRL team earlier this year and comes from a digital marketing and fashion background with previous roles at Universal Store and Black MIlk. In this chat Bianca shares her practical Tik Tok tips, how her team are using Meta with particular focus on Advantage Plus and her take on abandoned carts and how to deal with them. Plus she makes me look like a fool with one of the recent VRG GRL executions that I fell badly for.
