E-commerce has several different categories which include business-to-consumer, business-to-business, and consumer-to-consumer. The business to consumer category is probably what most think of when considering e-commerce. This category is best described as when a retailer offers products and services to an individual consumer. The business to business category of e-commerce may not be as popular in the public eye, but is an integral part of how companies conduct business. Business to business e-commerce is basically when a business makes a business out of supporting other companies by selling them products they need to run their business. Consumer to consumer transactions are not a new idea, but the introduction of the e-commerce environment has drastically changed this category of e-commerce. It used to be that one could only sell unwanted or unneeded personal belongings to people in a relatively close geographical area. With e-commerce this is no longer the case. Sites like eBay allow people to sell items in their possession to the highest bidder without the constraint of geographical location. When consumer to consumer transactions are done this way it allows the person selling their product to get a much fairer price for the products they are offering.…

There are many advantages and disadvantages from the consumers’ perspective of buying merchandise through Internet auctions like eBay. eBay, the electronic auction marketplace that has been dubbed by some as “the new American Pastime” remains true to its origins of serving a worldwide community of collectors. eBay has cultivated one of the most loyal customer bases on the web. eBayers buy and sell virtually everything, including the now infamous PEZ dispensers, sports memorabilia, computers, fine art, etc.…
As part of The Centennial Strategy, proposed by the company CEO Don Knauss, Clorox has continuously strived to become a leader in creating sustainability product. Through both internal development and acquisition, it had established environmentally friendly products that can be use around the user environment. Despite their early stage success, most of these products have struggled to maintain the growth rate and attracting new consumers. The root causes are the deteriorating economic and the lack of information on their products. The combination of the high price and the lack information discourage base and new consumers to try their new sustainable products. As a result, consumers are less willing to sacrifice efficacy, price and availability of their traditional products for those sustainable ones.…

The risk of entry by potential competitors is relatively high due to low barriers to entry. New competitors can launch new sites at a nominal cost using commercially available software. This low barrier to entry will cause competition to intensify in the future. Also due to the broad range of products sold at eBay there is many more opportunities for new competitors to enter in more specific market segments.…

Buying and selling things is not new. As a matter of fact, people have been buying and selling things in one form or another ever since time began. It is part of life. We all need or want things that we can not provide for ourselves, so we have to find someone who can supply us with the items, and we pay them to provide us with these items we need or want. Ebay is an online auction service that helps people sell their items to people across the country, or even the globe, for a good profit. So if someone has been trying to sell something through the classifieds in their local newspaper and the item has not been selling, they could advertise it on eBay, and someone could buy it from another state. I want to explain how to sell, make profit, and have many return customers from listing items on eBay.Deciding what to sell is not as easy as it looks. There are two main types of items that can be sold. The first and most obvious are those items that are lying around the house that need to ridden of, like of those CD's that are not listened to anymore, that old toy gotten as a kid, things like that. These items are great to sell to make some extra money, but they are a one time sale item, meaning once they are sold, they are gone and so is the chance at a recurring income. The second category of items that can be sold is a set of products that I create or buy in order to sell them. These can be a great source of income, things as simple as my mother's recipe for chocolate chip cookies, an information disk, or book about Beanie Babies. These types of items are things I can sell over and over again. They may not bring in as much money per item as other items, but I can sell them in a great quantity. I want to give a detailed description of the item types that I have just talked about.First, I will take the one of a kind items. These are the items that are taking up space in my closet, the things that I have bought…

There are several aspects of e-business unique to it. When comparing traditional business to e-business, one can see several differences between the two. The most obvious difference when buying standard goods (such as a toaster, a book, or a new computer) is the store. When dealing with e-business there is no “real” store or merchandise to look at. It is all presented through the merchant’s webpage, or by other electronic means. You will not be able to touch, or inspect potential purchases. All you will have to go on is perhaps a picture and a brief description of the item in question. This is obviously a big change from traditional store-based business practices. Why would any self-respecting consumer buy something via e-business if they were unable to touch, or inspect a potential purchase, and there is a real store just done the street? There are several reasons why e-business is appealing to a growing amount of people. For example, e-business is based on the internet. If you are using the internet, you are not bound by geography. You can access any site, anywhere in the world from the comfort of your computer chair. What does this mean to the consumer?…
