With a 90% sell through rate and 56% of participants new to Phillips, the sale achieved great success and set the highest ever online sale result in Phillips’ history. Launching this Fall, INTERSECT marks another step forward as we continue to invest in digital initiatives that expand buying opportunities for the growing number of new and existing clients who bid online.”
