medium to access the internet rather than PCs
and laptops

traditional methods to social platforms with
facebook at the head of the line
The importance of video is increasing with
Youtube videos going viral and creating a much
better visibility than ever imagined

Amazon one thing is clear:
it is the top online retailer
and it is eating into the
large offline retailers’ sales
too. Soon enough it might
take their place. They are
investing in two prime
areas:
Big Data and Analytics –
To know every individuals
purchase/basket…etc
pattern. Also to predict a
sale before it happens
Delivery: The
conventional form of
delivery is favorable where
in there are roads. In 3rd
world countries/ places
where in there is a lot of
congestion they plan to
use drones to decrease
the over all cost of
operations and decrease
the transaction time as
well
It’s main online sales
channels are Staples.com,
StaplesAdvantage.com
and Quill.com. The
infrastructure is based on
IBM hardware and
software and the company
is ready to heavily invest
in developing its online
operations. It even started
its very own innovation
hub called E-Commerce
Innovation Center.
Ok, long story short – the
early bird catches the
worm. Staples may not be
the coolest brand in this
list, but it was on of the
pioneers in this field and
it’s making lots of money
online and unlike
OfficeMax, and Office
Depot, its main
competitors, it has the
best chance to make a
shift online when its stores
will stop being profitable
Digital content transaction
is the primer reason for
having online presence
In 2011, Walmart agreed
to purchase Kosmix, a
social media startup
founded by Venky
Harinarayan and Anand
Rajaraman in 2005.
Walmart is now acting as
a Silicon Valley start-up
when it comes to
ecommerce – it’s lean, it
values technology talent
and it has a vision and a
strategy
its business model that
allowed companies and
individuals to order
customized computers via
mail orders pre-internet
