c.THE STRENGTH OF THEIR
DIGITAL STRATEGY
• In China, Burberry tested instant orders via text
message on WeChat.
• The goal is to bring the customers closer to the
brand.
• On digital channels, Burberry’s other goal is to be
consistent.
• Shoppers can now buy online and pick up in-store,
have a sales associate order for them from
Burberry.com while in-store, and access a unified
shopping cart on mobile and desktop.

16.
c.THE STRENGTH OF THEIR
DIGITAL STRATEGY
• Synchronizing channels has made it easier for
Burberry to expand into new markets, like Japan
and Korea, and enable shopping through social
platforms.
• Burberry also ran Twitter’s buy button in
conjunction with a 2014 fashion show shortly
after Twitter introduced the feature, making
mobile purchases instant.

17.
c.THE STRENGTH OF THEIR
DIGITAL STRATEGY
Burberry’s digital strategy, which the brand
plans to continue to evolve into 2016, has so far
not only put it at the top of the fashion luxury
category but among top players across industries.

18.
UNIQUE DIGITAL CONTENT
Such as the Art of Trench, Burberry’s social network

19.
UNIQUE DIGITAL CONTENT
Burberry launched was the excellent ‘Art of the
Trench’ microsite.
The microsite was essentially an independent social
networking website that allowed Burberry lovers to take
pictures out on the street of the iconic trench coat and
share them.
Users can drag around their mouse around the page
and see hundreds of different people wearing the coat,
whilst listening to a soundtrack of up and coming
artists.
There’s also an option to filter the style of trench by
colour, style and gender.

20.
DIGITAL & REALITY
AND VICE VERSA
If the website of Burberry is a online store, the
company had the amazing idea of making the store
a ‘website’.
How ?

21.
DIGITAL & REALITY
AND VICE VERSA
One step inside and you’re confronted with a
wall of screens.
Music blasts over the speakers, making
everything pulse to the dance beats.
You stop for a moment to take it all in — the
grand, palatial space. But no, you’re not in a posh
nightclub. The racks of clothes give it away: you’ve
wandered into a 21st century boutique, complete
with a heavy dose of technology to get you to
spend more.

page, making it the number 48 in the largest
