Active in wholesale, B2B and B2C, the group is represented in eight countries by more than 20 companies and has been a FactFinder customer for more than 20 years. Anja Hochmeier, who is responsible for eBusiness and marketing at PBS, remarks how this long-standing partnership in the ever-changing eCommerce industry is unique. She credits \u201cthe innovation that always comes with the new versions of the product\u201d as the element that sets FactFinder apart. In 2021, PBS migrated its online shops from FactFinder 6.8 to Next Generation, a decision that\u2019s already yielded positive results. For customers, there has been a significant improvement in bounce rate, especially on search results pages. For the team, working across so many sites, campaigns, brands and countries is now easier and faster. As Anja explains it\u2019s a \u201cbig asset\u201d that frees up valuable people resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Explore the PBS case study in video<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How PBS Drives Sales in 13 Shops by Tapping Into Next Generation\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1nKz3rf7iVc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Closed captions available in English.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About PBS Holding Group<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>PBS has a decentralized structure when it comes to sales and logistics, but higher-level topics such as IT and e-business are decided centrally and implemented decentralized. This allows the company to manage its IT, logistics and product data \u201cas locally as possible\u201d and with \u201cas much centralization as necessary\u201d, guaranteeing sustainable competitiveness while maintaining the greatest possible proximity to customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2018s one of many ways PBS delivers an ideal shopping experience. Of course, the technologies they choose to support them in doing so must also be up to the task. Anja explains, \u201cThe search needs to know exactly whether it\u2019s the head buyer accessing the entire assortment, or whether it\u2018s buyer X choosing from only 10 pencils and not 700. The search results are naturally very different. Getting that right so that neither the head buyer nor the \u2018normal\u2019 buyer notices a difference in performance is a big challenge.\u201d Transforming ordinary B2C and B2B moments into inspiring shopping experiences is a task PBS has put in the hands of FactFinder for over two decades. With the switch to Next Generation, the company is on the right track to continue offering more to its customers.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"829\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/PBS-company-overview-1-1024x829.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/PBS-company-overview-1-1024x829.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/PBS-company-overview-1-300x243.png 300w, https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/PBS-company-overview-1-768x622.png 768w, https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/PBS-company-overview-1.png 1240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Knowing what customers want with the Predictive Basket<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>PBS is aware that the majority of B2B sales are generated by returning customers. With the help of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/products\/predictive-basket.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Predictive Basket<\/a>, the company can now process repeat orders easier, faster and more convenient. How? The AI-powered solution accurately predicts which products shoppers are likely to want to order during their current online session. These predictions are a result of analyzing previous purchases, purchasing frequency, and seasonal changes.&nbsp; So, before they can run out of certain office supplies, the neural network reminds them to reorder. Customers can then add the suggested products directly to their shopping cart. All without having to search for anything and removing the possibility of forgetting something important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:25% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"314\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/austrian_retail_innovation_factfinder.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9668 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/austrian_retail_innovation_factfinder.png 200w, https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/austrian_retail_innovation_factfinder-191x300.png 191w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-cb6c37aae6f0121abba978be498351d1\" style=\"color:#aa73f2\">Award-winning technology<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Predictive Basket received the <strong>Austrian Retail Innovation Award<\/strong> for <strong>Best Online Innovation<\/strong>, marking a significant milestone in eCommerce innovation. This recognition highlights its unique ability to simplify reordering and transform the online shopping experience.<br><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/resources\/pr-articles\/factfinder-kastner-best-online-innovation.html\">Learn more.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Digital merchandising made easy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Displaying content in a targeted manner is a way PBS entices customers, draws attention to product ranges and ultimately turns visitors into buyers. Using FactFinder\u2019s merchandising tools, Anja and her team easily promote compelling landing pages for brands, seasonal events, offers, information pages and more. These merchandising functions enable fast and flexible digital marketing, especially when managing content shared between companies and countries. Instead of requiring starting from scratch for each independent shop, FactFinder creates synergy. \u201cThis gives us the opportunity to keep looking at new topics instead of \u2018more of the same\u2019 all the time,\u201d remarks Anja.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Self-optimizing product recommendations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Next Generation helps online shoppers find both the right products and relevant accessories faster. On every product detail page, FactFinder shows recommendations that match the product being viewed &#8211; increasing the average order value without any manual maintenance effort. \u201cPreviously, this was solved completely differently,\u201d explains Anja. \u201cI am very happy that we now have an automated solution.\u201d The PBS team doesn\u2018t have to decide for each product in the assortment which recommendations are relevant in each case. FactFinder does it for them. By analyzing clicks, shopping carts and combined sales in the store, the AI generates a recommendation logic that it tailors to each individual customer in real time and optimizes independently.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"829\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/PBS-product-recommendations-1-1024x829.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/PBS-product-recommendations-1-1024x829.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/PBS-product-recommendations-1-300x243.png 300w, https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/PBS-product-recommendations-1-768x622.png 768w, https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/PBS-product-recommendations-1.png 1240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Search less and buy more with automated product recommendations. Online shoppers can easily view complementary products and complete their shopping cart with just a few clicks.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Machine learning as a conversion lever<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Anja explains that since the go-live with Next Generation, the wisdom of the crowd aka the behavior of all users in the store, also plays a role in the order results are displayed. For example, how often was a product clicked? Added to the shopping cart? Purchased? FactFinder automatically tracks all this information to optimize the results behind each search query. This way, the most popular products continually move up in the product results where customers see them first. The effects are visible in the quality of the search results and category pages and with it the conversion rate increases in parallel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Interactive customer consulting with guided selling<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For shoppers in this industry, not all purchases are as straightforward as they seem. Take paper shredders as an example. What is the exact application for the buyer? How much paper must be able to be shredded at once? What safety level does it need? To support and guide buyers in choosing the appropriate product, PBS uses a campaign called guided selling. It works by using a question-and-answer format which prefilters the search results and then delivers only the most suitable products. Anja gives another example: \u201cWhat you might not expect is that it can be very complicated. After all, they come with windows, without self-adhesive and in many formats. Often, the initial search reflex is to enter the word \u2018envelope\u2019 and then you have 500 results, and you say \u201cFor God\u2019s sake \u2013 what do I do now? So, our customers are happy to be guided through this.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"829\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/PBS-guided-selling-1-1024x829.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/PBS-guided-selling-1-1024x829.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/PBS-guided-selling-1-300x243.png 300w, https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/PBS-guided-selling-1-768x622.png 768w, https:\/\/www.fact-finder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/PBS-guided-selling-1.png 1240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Sometimes even professional B2B buyers aren\u2019t sure which product version they need.

Two online shops will soon be launched in multiple languages, which will adjust to customer preferences of seeing content in either English or German &#8211; and the search will adapt accordingly. \u201cOf course, this means additional complexity for the entire system, but the tests are very promising that it will work well,\u201d\u00ad says Anja. Next, the eCommerce team wants to \u201cget even more out of the bouquet of features that FactFinder features now offer us.\u201d One of the modules that is particularly promising, as Anja sums up, is the Predictive Basket. \u201cIt\u2018s still in its infancy and, of course, we want to get the most out of it. In other words, do we have enough topics that are going to be implemented with Next Generation? Yes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:16px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"B2B eCommerce is booming, but this shift to online has its challenges\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/49dhnyFSnf4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:16px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We catch up with PBS Holding Group to discover how Next Generation functionalities such as search, recommendations, guided selling and the Predictive Basket work smarter so the team can work easier with greater results.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":37,"featured_media":8215,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[201],"tags":[252,63,292,384,289,58,27],"class_list":["post-8180","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-success-stories","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-conversion","tag-guided-selling","tag-next-generation","tag-predictive-basket","tag-recommendations","tag-search-2"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
