Why e-Biz? Is it for the hype
that the word is creating or for the ease and low-cost distribution service
that it is increasing proving to be capable of? Well, seems like it is
inevitable for companies to avoid the virtual space anymore. With more and more
participants plunging into the ocean of e-Biz, Digital Marketing and e-Commerce
have become indispensable dimensions of any business. Though the usually given reasons
of increasing family incomes and time constraints seem to be logical, the real
fact is that the companies find it more convenient to sell and market online. A
purchaser would go to any extent to buy what he wants but for a seller there is
always a thought preceding the act of setting up a store- is this locality good
enough to help me make money? With the advent of the virtual space, all they
really need to do is create a website, manage the supply chain and keep
marketing for their online outlet. Now the market is open at all times to every
individual on the face of this earth! Isn't that a reason good enough for a
seller / manufacturer to fall for the word e-Biz?
Let’s also take a look at what
exactly propelled this change. Globalization is the word. An economy being flooded
with products and services from across the world is sure to reach a phase where
the real estate prices shoot up to staggering numbers. The virtual space has prevented
the world from going into another real estate bubble. Oh yes, it has become the
savior for the millions of companies and individuals who would've otherwise.
The simple, sensible move of embracing the idea of online selling and marketing
has not only brought in greater benefits in terms of the revenues but has also
been able to help retain them.
Globalization is synonymous with
standardization. And that’s the magic that catalyzes the entire reaction to the
e-biz segment. Today everyone knows what a size M, Dolby 7.1, 4 GB… means. That
is what drives the business online without a glitch. Though slow the evolutionary
past has definitely got a role to play in shaping the virtual space.
English entrepreneur Michael Aldrich
invented online shopping in 1979. It has taken the world so long to given into
the idea. Increasing networking capabilities that have shrunken the world can
perhaps do anything. So, why not use them to run a business from end-to-end?
Evolution of the IT infrastructure has indeed contributed to the revolution of
the of the business space! The future seems very clearly revolutionary.
