Targeted specifically at consumers, this product <b>aims to attract a broad audience<\/b>.\n\nThe features are therefore adapted to this goal:\n<ul>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Creation and optimization of an online storefront focused on Google and SEO;<\/li>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Design of multichannel shopping experiences (social networks, web, apps, &#8230;);<\/li>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Personalization based on individual consumer behavior;<\/li>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Creation of product catalogs across all channels;<\/li>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Centralization of customer data.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nThough Salesforce B2C Commerce Cloud emphasizes the diversity of communication channels, it continues to provide a comprehensive view of e-commerce performance.
