Pin of the Week: Are You Ready for the Holidays?

Hi everyone, and welcome to this week's "Pin of the Week." This week's pin is an e-commerce infographic titled Are You Ready for the Holidays? from Monetate.

The holiday season is quickly approaching, and has already begun in full force for some retailers. The infographic, originally found on Elastic Path's website, combines statistics on holiday shopping behavior and tips for growing online sales this season. The infographic estimates that by 2016 the internet will impact total sales by 44 percent. It also states that 81 percent of consumers will shop online this Cyber Monday for the best deals instead of at a retail location, and 55 percent of online shoppers expect free shipping on every order.
