Since the dawn of the age of technology businesses have been figuring out new and quick ways to make money. Internet “stores” have proved to be a win. Like the video pointed out Amazon and Ebay have been quite the success with not only buying products, but allowing people to sell their own products. It seems to me that nearly every successful business has at least a portion online.
Online businesses face the challenge of lacking a personal touch, it is more comfortable for someone who’s buying say a pair of shoes to go to Foot Locker rather than get on Zappos.com and purchase a pair because they have the opportunity to try them on. But on the other hand the opportunity presented by doing business online is huge. The internet reaches millions more people than a business could ever hope without it. By being given the opportunity to sell an idea or product to someone half way across the world, businesses are able to expand their names. You can search for a rare product online that you may not be able to find anywhere else.
Like the video said Amazon.com and Ebay.com seem to be some of the most successful businesses online right now. Since they provide users with the ability to not only shop but also sell that gives people the chance to make money and we know America is all about making a quick dollar.
