Debate #6 of The Most Honest eCommerce Debate drops tomorrow, November 19 at 12 PM ET.

This week’s question:
When does the customer really enter the decision process?

We talk a lot about “the customer journey,” but when does it actually begin? Is it the first click? The first ad impression? Or long before, when they start forming opinions about your brand or category?

Five industry voices take on this question with very different points of view, and you’ll decide who makes the strongest case.

Featuring:

  • Dave Finnegan — Operating Partner, BlackFinn

  • Lee Trotter — Director, Digital Engagement, Data Realm Software

  • Matt Ezyk — Senior Director of Engineering, Ecommerce, Hanna Andersson

  • Rob Garf — Head of Strategy and Insights, Cordial

  • Suze Dowling — Co-Founder & Chief Business Officer, Pattern Brands

  • Referee: Rick Watson, RMW Commerce

Watch the debate, hear the arguments, and vote for your winner.

Next up:
“No one asked for Agentic commerce – what’s the possible backlash?” releasing December 3.

See you tomorrow,
