The Power of E-Commerce
Nothing has changed the way
people shop more than the worldwide web. Any product or piece of
information is only a search away and this makes an online
business an extremely lucrative venture. E-commerce has only
been around for about 15 years but is estimated that nearly half
of the entire U.S. population will make an online purchase in
2009. It is also estimated that an average of $800 will be spent
yearly online for every person in the U.S.! That is a whopping
$250 billion yearly. The most shocking statistic is that online
sales continue to increase by 20%-30% every single year. This
trend is not expected to slow down any time soon.
You
can simply turn on the TV and watch it for ten minutes and when
the commercials start airing, pay attention that each one puts
their web address on the ad. You hear will hear .com for nearly
every day for the rest of your life. The internet will continue
to grow rapidly and e-commerce will continually capture larger
percentages of GDP.
In 1998 we started our first online
company drop shipping fitness books, software, DVD’s and other
related products. We weren’t really expecting too much from the
new venture but were we in for a ride. In our first year we
achieved just over $135,000 in sales and were absolutely
ecstatic about the results. In 2006, when we sold the business,
sales were $1.7 million for fiscal year 2005. The company was
still run by two people in 2005 and still had the same rough
design from 1998. This is just a small testament to the power of
the internet and e-commerce.
With an endless number of
potential customers and the rapid expansion of the internet you
are in a great position right now to harness the enormous power
of e-commerce!
Now is the time to start your online
business. The longer you wait the more money you are leaving on
the table. Regardless of what you decide to sell, there is a
market ready and waiting for you. You deserve to capture a piece
of the pie!
