Transactional marketing is a way for FMCG brands to increase sales by putting their products in online shopping baskets. It works by making recommendations and suggestions to consumers during the online shopping experience to solve problems and make their lives more convenient. Transactional marketing deploys digital advertising like websites, apps, social media, and other online touchpoints to engage consumers and influence what they buy. The goal is to close the gap between missed online FMCG sales each year and drive more profitable e-commerce for brands.
