eCommerce
Retail consumers spend 130 to 140 billion dollars per year buying on-line. In a recent survey polling internet use, 90% claimed to purchase on-line. Email was the only category higher with 100% usage.
With a drooping world economy, traditional brick and mortar retail is slower than a three legged race at a 50 year high school reunion. Yet on-line sales are growing faster than the national debt, 13% over just the last year.
Traditional advertising and marketing budgets have crumbled. Television advertising revenue is dwindling, radio holds on to the knot at the end of their rope and magazine and newspapers can see the stygian tunnel at the end of the light. Conventional catalog and direct marketing merchants are criticized for their indifference to the plight of the planet’s resources. In contrast, on-line advertising and marketing budgets have doubled, tripled and quadrupled.
Hmm... Looks like everyone got the memo. ECommerce is not just for geeks, nerds and web heads anymore.
