Both our private and our professional lives are becoming increasingly digital. No matter where or when \u2013 we are almost always connected and can place an order online from anywhere at any time.<\/p><p>Customers are able to easily compare products and prices, refer to the experiences of other customers and, with just a few clicks, the desired product will be on their doorstep the very next day. This is the way forward that more and more customers are choosing. The shift in customer demand, from brick and mortar to online, is something that we follow, and invest in.<\/p><p>Under the leadership of Bruce Bauman, Director of E-Commerce and Digital Marketing at NDS, we have successfully implemented a strategy since 2019 to expand our online business with water management products in the US market. Critical to this strategy have been several different steps:<\/p><p>First, we offer our customers a top-notch shopping experience. How do we do this? We provide educational content to end users by showcasing typical applications, the product itself, or general knowhow in the management of water. We want to be the trusted partner when our customers have questions.\u00a0<span style=\"letter-spacing: -0.003em;\">At the same time, we need to make sure that our product pages are well maintained and always up to date. Second, we expand NDS\u2019s online presence using search engine optimization (SEO) and the placement of targeted banner ads on selected websites. And third, we have partnered with some of our direct customers to enhance the user experience of our products on their websites. All these measures have worked very well for us.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-c023a6d elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"c023a6d\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-cfc496a\" data-id=\"cfc496a\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f4886ee elementor-blockquote--skin-quotation elementor-blockquote--align-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-blockquote\" data-id=\"f4886ee\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"blockquote.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<blockquote class=\"elementor-blockquote\">\n\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-blockquote__content\">\n\t\t\t\tThe growth on our partners\u2019 websites has been driven by our ability to make our products highly discoverable and by increasing the likelihood a shopper will purchase our products by providing answers to their questions.

A very strong factor is certainly the Corona pandemic, which has accelerated the expansion of our online business to an extent that we could not have expected. Demand for our Irrigation and Stormwater products increased dramatically, as people spent more time at home and in their gardens due to lockdowns, curfews and working from home. As a result, demand for garden and DIY products increased \u2013 which led to record sales for our online business in 2020.<\/p><p><strong>Online sales will continue to grow \u2013 we will continue to invest <\/strong><\/p><p>Our online business has been performing extremely well, we are expecting another strong year in digital commerce sales in 2021.
