The current economic climate has forced businesses to change their advertising strategy and
there is now more focus on the Internet than ever before. This has not only meant reduced
costs, but also immediate calls-to-action, for online buyers seeking competitive sales prices,
convenient ordering and delivery, wider range of products and the ability to compare prices
and benefits against other merchants.
Businesses who are not investing in e-commerce are missing out on a golden opportunity to
increase sales, reduce costs, and beat their competitors, but they need to ensure that it is
done well. Understanding buying behaviour and investing in their customers’ online shopping
experience will be key to their e-commerce strategy and success as will determining which
strategies to embrace and which to steer well clear of.
