The challenge

Villeroy & Boch, a premium ceramics and lifestyle brand, wanted to give online shoppers the confidence to buy higher-priced homeware without seeing it in person. It needed authentic customer content to support product discovery and purchase decisions on its ecommerce site.

The solution

The brand deployed Bazaarvoice Ratings and Reviews alongside Galleries and Social Commerce, surfacing user-generated photos and reviews on product pages so shoppers could see products used in real homes.

User-generated content is one of the most trustworthy types of content a brand could show to their customers.
