INTO THE WORLD OF E-COMMERCE

The process that involves the exchange of good and service for a price online is called e-commerce. The customers will buy the products from the sellers and the sellers will sell them in exchange for a cost on any online platform. This transactional process is also known as e-tail. The growth of e-commerce websites have grown tremendously over the past few years. Everybody is shifting to online stores or websites when it comes to shopping, because it is energy and time saving. During this pandemic time, people don’t prefer going out much but daily needs should be fulfilled. This is where online sites come for the rescue. 

The different types of e-commerce sites are:

• B2C (Business to Consumer): This is the most common and basic form of e-commerce where the businesses sell their products and services to the customers. The purchase decision is comparatively less than B2B (Business to Business) because the value of the products is less. For example, if you want to buy a pair of jeans, you will take much time to think and buy but if you are buying jeans making machines, then the decision will obviously take time.
• B2B (Business to Business): This transaction takes place between business companies. The jeans manufacturing company will buy machines from a machine manufacturing company.
• C2B (Customer to Business): Here, the customer has the power to fix the price and sell their products. This is a concept which wasn’t that popular before but with the help of technology and creativity individuals can sell their products or services to business companies.
• C2C (Customer to Customer): This business connects customers for the transactional process. One customer will buy products/ services from another customer. The concept of thrift shopping comes under C2C, where customers put up their used products for sell and another customer can re-wear the same products.
