A review is a powerful action with the ability to affect your present and future. The importance of a review lies in its impact on memory and learning. The more you review the better you understand the relationship between ideas and data that you encounter consistently. This understanding forms the basis for learning which, in turn, forms the basis for making better business decisions.
We spend a lot of time around this blog looking at, writing about and sharing ecommerce related infographics. Sometimes we make our own infographics and sometimes we share other companies’ infographics. By expressing ideas and data through images and small amounts of text, infographics often make it easier for people to process information. Almost every company with a content marketing strategy has created infographics in an effort to improve the way they communicate; or, at least, to try and offer something new to their audience. Here, for your review, are five of our most popular Ecommerce Eye Candies of 2014.
