How to Start Selling Your Products with Voice Shopping

Voice Shopping is by far the fastest growing sales channel in history. The use of voice assistants is quickly becoming just as common as using a smartphone, becoming a go-to channel for consumers to search the web, communicate with others, and in particular — to shop!

Homes all around the world are filling up with voice assistants, with the global voice assistant market already valued at $1.7 billion, and predicted to reach $26.8 billion by 2030. Amazon alone claims to have sold over 100 million Alexa devices in 2019 alone. The following year, Google revealed that half a billion people around the world use Google Assistants.

Not only are conversations happening through these devices, but over 43% of voice assistant users use them to shop, and nearly 5.5. million adults in the US make purchases with their smart speakers on a regular basis. By the end of 2020, 50% of all searches will be done by voice. Already, Google says that 20% of searches are voice activated.
