The Future of E-Commerce: Shopping by People, Not Products

The Shift to People-Led Shopping

Shoppers no longer think “I need shoes.” They think “I want her style.” This human-centered lens is reshaping commerce.

Why Creator Commerce Works

Authentic recommendations feel personal, relatable, and trustworthy. This is why social shopping outperforms traditional ad funnels.

How Brands Can Adapt

• People-led discovery.

• More engagement.

• Direct, owned sales.
