Create a personalized storefront experience
You can improve the digital experience for your customers by personalizing the storefront content and making it relevant to them. To help you with this, SXA Storefront takes full advantage of the Sitecore Commerce Connect framework (shown in the following figure) by:
-
Collecting intelligence on customer behavior, registering outcomes, goals, and page events.
-
Providing rules for personalizing the individual customer experience based on intelligence collected about customer behavior.
When you use the Storefront site template, functionality for analytics and personalization is automatically set up and enabled.
