The shopping process has dramatically changed over the past years. We now live in an omni channel context in which people prefer getting the information and buying the products online, more than ever before. However, this doesn’t mean the other traditional channels have been (or should be) forgotten. It has never been more important to manage a coherent brand image by aligning the concept, the message and the offer to all means of distribution, online and off-line: physical store, online ads, emails, events, website, etc.

Retailers now face the need to adapt their products and the brand’s core promise to their target audiences. They have to understand and adapt their services to the needs of customers worldwide: localized online strategies consist of website translation, local currency pricing display, localized payment solutions, several delivery options, localized support and so on.

From the moment a shopping journey starts, the informed consumers expect continuity and consistence at any point and across all shopping and delivery channels. Data mining becomes crucial in deciding where and when to spend money as a merchant. All gaps must be filled: from the offers consumers receive on their email (based on his previous acquisitions), to the landing page experience, shopping cart ease of use and convenient payment options and to the possibility of returning the product in store and benefit from support in a language of choice.

Affiliate marketing represents a huge opportunity for local economies as international and many savvy brands started seeking new solutions to meet their customers’ needs anywhere and anyhow.

A survey conducted by Pitney Bowes shows that cross-border ecommerce has become prevalent among consumers around the world:

“Consumers across the world have spoken. We have moved beyond the days of marketplace or retailer; in-store or online; or even in-country or cross-border,” says Lila Snyder, President, Global Ecommerce, Pitney Bowes. “The world is shopping—everywhere—as new consumer behaviors and trends have emerged.”

The most recent and relevant survey on affiliate marketing is the AffStat report, conducted by the Affiliate Summit team on more than 2.350 affiliate worldwide in 2015.

Almost 61% of the respondents were from the US, 3.53% of them were based in India, 3,08% were from the U.K. and 2.74% were Russians. A little over 3% came from Israel, Germany and Netherlands and less than 3% respondents lived in Spain, Brazil, China, Australia and France.

The AffStat Survey reveals the affiliate marketers core target countries 2015:

US 68.18 %
Europe 15.07 %
North America 6.16 %
Asia 2.4 %
Africa 1.37 %
South America 1.37 %
Australia 1.03 %
Canada 1.03 %
Central America 0.68 %
Russia 0.34 %
Thailand 0.34 %
UK 0.34 %
Italy 0.34 %
While it’s natural for affiliate markets to grow at a similar rate with the global online spending we should expect differences in shopping behaviors and adoption strategies.

Emerging markets like China and India, countries which absorb the latest fashions at a faster rate will generally require a sound mobile strategy. Shoppers in Japan, France and Russia prefer buying from a desktop. Obviously, most online shoppers prefer payment in their preferred currency and through their chosen method.
