Description

In this week's episode, we chat with Nik Fletcher, Head of Digital Experience at Rapha, about the importance of progress over perfection in eCommerce. We discuss why brands fail to authentically connect with shoppers, and how to rebuild trust by embracing vulnerability.


Topics Covered:

  • The passion gap between eCommerce practitioners and customers
  • Short-term thinking that overlooks long-term loyalty
  • Why ego and perfectionism hinder customer centricity
  • The role of vulnerability in driving change

Key Quotes:

  • "It takes two people to start a movement, the lone outsider and the first follower. But you've got to be vulnerable to be that first or second person."
  • "It's about progress, knowing that vision of where you want to be and holding that true. It's about keeping that justice."
  • “Sometimes it’s like, ‘What would this be like in the real world?’ in a store. That’s the most foundational, human, common sense way of looking at things.”
