*Sears Drives 80x ROI* and Brought the In-Store Experience to Life With Terrific Live Shopping
About
Sears, a leading retail brand offers a wide variety of products, from household appliances and tools to apparel. As the retail landscape continues to shift towards digital channels, Sears sought innovative ways to deepen customer engagement and drive sales online. The brand recognized that the eCommerce space required more dynamic and personalized experiences to stand out, particularly for their large and diverse customer base.
To meet these needs, Sears partnered with Terrific’s live shopping platform, which allows real-time interaction between customers and products through immersive live events. The platform also provides customers with the ability to ask questions, receive real-time answers, and make purchases directly during the broadcast.

Challenges
Sears wanted to drive incremental sales and reduce its reliance on traditional marketing channels by introducing live shopping as a way to reach a wider audience and engage customers in real-time.
- The goal was to strengthen their online community and ensure that customers felt a personal connection to the brand, enhancing customer loyalty while also boosting conversion rates.
- In addition to diversifying their marketing mix, Sears was looking to scale their eCommerce operations by integrating live shopping into their broader strategy. With live shopping gaining traction as a powerful tool for engagement, Sears realized the need to partner with an experienced provider, like Terrific, to bring these events to life.
- In the past, Sears relied on email and website promotions to announce new products and sales. However, with changing consumer preferences and the growing popularity of live, interactive content, the team knew they needed to explore new channels to maintain engagement and drive growth. Live shopping, with its potential for real-time interaction and immediate conversion, presented a clear opportunity.
