Now, if you will recall from the previous session in consumer online selling, there are a couple of pain points here in the left hand side, like retailers have to know how they know and reach their customers better and how their business people can react to more changes.

消費者向けオンライン販売
I assumed this phrase "Consumer Online Selling" might be translated and used as a common phrase to mean "sales targeted at the consumer" since apparently it refers to the session in the document at your hand. This is kind of a literal traslation, but I got some prominent examples from web search. (Please look at the link:

If the general character of this "Consumer" is stressed, you would add the word "一般" to the head of it as "一般消費者向けオンライン販売". However, there isn't any prominent site using this phrase.
From all this above, I would say "消費者向けオンライン販売" would be better and safe to choose for this phrase.

顧客へのオンライン販売
This paragraph is talking about how difficult it is for retailers to reach out their customers. In the face-to-face selling, retailers can directly feel how their customers feel, but it is not easy to do so online.
