Multichannel Home Shopping in EuropeMathias Birkel, Klaus Goldhammer (June 2017)
Home shopping is a market with stable growth throughout Europe. Providers of live TV shopping, direct response TV (DRTV) and auction TV have responded well to the challenges of digitisation and developed into modern multichannel providers.
While selling products on TV used to be the core business of home shopping over years, the Internet has become an increasingly important sales channel. Today, 23 percent of home shopping customers have been enticed by social media when they buy products.
New technologies such as smart devices and virtual reality are expected to influence the market in the future. 78 percent of home shopping users are interested in product presentation supported by VR technology.
