A Practical Manual for Head of Ecommerce: The most comprehensive guide (600 pages) to leading an ecommerce business from start to finish (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798278961222)

This book is the manual you wish you'd had on day one.

It's not an advertising course, a list of tools, or a digital trend guide. It's a clear, direct, and practical guide so you can answer, with sound judgment, the question that truly matters:

"What does an Ecommerce Director need to do to ensure the channel sells, generates revenue, and doesn't descend into chaos?"

In these pages you'll find:

• What to do in your first 90 days to understand the business, the numbers, and the internal landscape without improvising.
• How to go from "we have a website" to having a channel with objectives, metrics, and a profit and loss statement.
• How to organize your catalog, prices, promotions, and product descriptions so the website isn't just a pretty showcase, but a functional sales machine.
• How to set up and interpret your dashboard: what to look at each day, each week, each month, and each quarter.
• How to work with marketing, technology, operations, logistics, customer service, and finance without getting caught up in internal conflicts. How to decide which projects to tackle first, which to tackle later, and which to skip (at least for now), so you don't get overwhelmed with requests.
• What role should marketplaces, omnichannel strategies, AI, personalization, and other trends play, without losing sight of your goals?
• How to become a respected leader, both within and outside your ecommerce team: managing people, culture, expectations, and internal politics.

This book is for:

• New ecommerce directors who want order and clarity.
• Online channel managers in traditional companies that are accelerating their digital transformation.
• Entrepreneurs and business owners who need to stop thinking only as "website owners" and start thinking as directors of an entire channel.

With simple language, concrete examples, and actionable checklists, this book guides you from the initial snapshot of your ecommerce business to designing your ideal first year leading the channel.

If you feel your ecommerce business could be achieving much more, but you lack a clear framework to guide it, this book is for you. It's not about doing it perfectly.

It's about stopping the improvisation and finally starting to run the online channel like the serious business it truly is.
