Download or read book Cross Border E Commerce Marketing and Management written by Hoque, Md. Rakibul and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2020-10-30 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The continued advancement of globalization, increases in internet connectivity, compatibility of international payment systems, and adaptability of logistics and shipping processes have combined to contribute to the rapid growth of the cross-border e-commerce market. Due to these advancements and the ubiquitous presence of smartphones, consumer use of cross-border e-commerce is increasingly simplified, and thus, sellers are hardly restricted to a specific country in terms of promoting, selling, and shipping goods worldwide. The burgeoning opportunities, habits, and trends of shopping on cross-border e-commerce platforms have expedited the prospect of becoming a presence in the global market. This is true for enterprises of all sizes, especially for small? and medium?sized enterprises (SMEs) that want to add their footprint in the international market for the first time. Like any other industry, cross-border e-commerce has its specific economics and driving forces, but has different scopes, challenges, and trends due to the geographic and cultural expanse of relevant environments. Cross-Border E-Commerce Marketing and Management was conceptualized by identifying the scope of new complementary information with a comprehensive understanding of the issues and potential of cross-border e-commerce businesses. The authors believe that this book will not only fill the void in the current research but will also provide far-sighted vision and strategies, as it covers big data, artificial intelligence, IoT, supply chain management, and more. This book provides the necessary knowledge to managers to compete with the competitive market structure and ultimately contribute to the sustainable economic growth of a country. It works as a guideline for existing cross-border e-commerce managers to formulate individual strategies that combine to optimize the industry while keeping the enterprise competitive. This book is useful in both developed and developing country contexts. This publication is an ideal resource for academicians, policy makers, stakeholders, and cross-border e-commerce managers, especially from SMEs.

Download or read book Culture and Commerce written by Mukti Khaire and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2017-06-20 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Art and business are often described as worlds apart, even diametric opposites. And yet, these realms are close cousins in creative industries where firms bring cultural goods to market, attaching price tags to music, paintings, theater, literature, film, and fashion. Building on theories of value construction and cultural production, Culture and Commerce details the processes by which artistic worth is decoded, translated, and converted to economic value. Mukti Khaire introduces readers to three industry players: creators, producers (who bring to market and distribute cultural goods), and intermediaries (who critique and rave about them). Case studies of firms from Chanel and Penguin to tastemakers like the Pritzker Prize and The Sundance Institute illuminate how these professionals construct a vital value chain. Highlighting the role of "pioneer entrepreneurs"—who carve out space for radical, new product categories—Khaire illustrates how creative professionals influence our sense of value, shifting consumer behavior and our culture in deep, surprising ways.

Download or read book Global e commerce written by Kenneth L. Kraemer and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-08-17 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are the Internet and e-commerce truly revolutionizing business practice? This book explodes the transformation myth by demonstrating that the Internet and e-commerce are in fact being adapted by firms to reinforce their existing relationships with customers, suppliers, and business partners. Detailed case studies of eight countries show that, rather than creating a borderless global economy, e-commerce strongly reflects existing local patterns of commerce, business, and consumer preference, and its impact therefore varies greatly by country. Paradoxically, while e-commerce is increasing the efficiency, effectiveness, and competitiveness of firms, it is also increasing the complexity of their environments as they have to deal with more business partners and also face greater competition from other firms. This incisive analysis of the diffusion and impact of e-business provides academic researchers, graduates, and MBA students with a solid basis for understanding its likely evolution.

Download or read book The Impact of E commerce on the Bookselling Industry written by Andreas Thiel and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2002-12-17 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2001 in the subject Computer Science - Commercial Information Technology, grade: A (88%), UNITEC New Zealand (School of Information Systems and Computing), course: The Impact of Information Technology on Society, language: English, abstract: 1 Introduction 1.1 Electronic Commerce, a Topic of current Interest Electronic commerce (e-commerce) is becoming more and more important in our world. In the beginning, only start-up companies tried doing online business, but today even the old economy has realized that e-commerce can be profitable and can make a company operate more efficiently. Despite the fall of many unprofitable Internet companies in the last months, many businesses still see ecommerce as an opportunity. Therefore, lots of companies have already taken or want to take part in e-commerce. If it is not because of making profits out of the online business immediately, it is due to the fear of missing the train and being left behind, when all other companies have successfully started selling their products or services over the Internet. Moreover, technology is changing very fast and not starting early can lead to a lack of experience, that is desperately needed later on, provided that the technology proofs to be a success. Of course, this strategy bears also a high risk. If the technology turns out to be a failure, it would have been better not to have rushed into it. However, the reasons for or against going into e-commerce should not be discussed in this report. Fact is, that many companies have started e-commerce and still today many others try to start online business successfully. As a result, e-commerce has quite a big impact on companies and their customers.
