Description
In October 2007, the Canadian Dollar shot to $1.09, sparking an all-time high of cross-border shoppers looking to capitalize on newfound buying power. Catalog and online shopping amongst Canadians has never been more popular, with some U.S. multichannel retailers reporting 40-80% growth in the 2007 holiday season alone.

LEARNER OUTCOMES:
  • Learn how to reduce your content creation costs immediately through better asset and process management.
  • Make informed decisions based on Canadian retail trends, and test the market without a catalog.
  • Understand the geo-demographic profile of cross-border shoppers, their spending habits and what they buy.
