Same policy… different results! The differences between Nannucciand La Rinascentewebsites Both Nannucci and La Rinascente are born, at the beginning of their history, like traditional shops, that later developed offering other services. To increase their sales, both of them tried the Internet way, but they reached very different results: while Nannucci.it had a great success, La Rinascente website didn’t prove equally profitable and the company soon gave up this experience …but why?
Possible reasons: When you buy on Nannucci.it, you already know what you will get (a particular CD is always the same!) Buying clothes is more difficult because you have to chek size and quality and also to try them on… The delivery is promised in a couple of weeks (for customers it’s better to wait than to pay more) La Rinascente promises a faster delivery (5-10 days) with of course higher costs. A particular record has no substitutes and Nannucci has item that you can’t find in shops. If you don’t find a piece of clothes you can buy a similar one.
Today internet has become Nannucci’s most important selling channel, while La Rinascente has closed its on line store, coming back to traditional sales.
