Supplemental Product Data

 
Supplemental data, powered by the Product Information Management (PIM) system, acts as the building blocks for creating compelling product pages that resonate with customers, offering them a detailed and interactive understanding of the brand's offerings.
 
A brand portal is more than a collection of digital pages; it's a direct representation of a brand's identity and product line that should mirror the essence and values of the brand itself. While the minimum required data ensures basic functionality, it's the supplemental data that elevates the brand's image, transforming a simple online presence into an engaging, immersive experience.
 
With supplemental product data driven by the PIM, brands can present their products in the best possible light. High-quality images, comprehensive specifications, and in-depth descriptions enrich the user experience, providing a well-rounded view that supports informed decision-making. This heightened engagement not only influences buyers but also resonates with end consumers, establishing a stronger bond with the brand.
 
By providing supplemental product data, brands go beyond the basics, elevating their portal from a functional tool to an engaging experience.  While the minimum required product data lays the foundation, it's the supplemental PIM data that creates an immersive experience.  The effort invested in enriching content resonates with buyers and end consumers, driving brand loyalty and improved user experiences.

The screenshot below shows a sample of 2 separate tab groups and the underlying data.
