II. REVIEW OF LITERATURE
This study combines factors that other studies have done
that will impact the consumer’s copping decision in online
and offline stores for apparels. It includes the price
attractiveness, time saving, perceived threat, enjoyment and
excitement, tangibility and high interactivity. All of these
factors will contribute to the study of client’s purchasing
intention for apparels on both stores which includes online
and offline shopping. Pan,( 2007) defined copping intention
as the appetite of copping the product. also, Engel, Blackwell
and Miniard,( 1990) defines copping intention as a cerebral
process of decision- timber.
In online shopping, it's anticipated that shoppers are

consumers are more likely to associate tangibility, high
interactivity and enjoyment with their intention to protect.

usability is the starting point to get the confidence and support
of the consumers. currently, the rapid-fire development of the
Internet and its effect on diurnal life has introduced a new
consumer profile which is appertained to as the' online
consumer'.
similar consumers are affected by different factors and
they've different purchasing habits with respect to traditional
consumers. The main thing of this paper is to depict the
factors that have an impact on consumers' online purchase
intentions through an in- depth analysis of the applicable
literature. The study results reveal that while utmost of the
studies concentrate on the impact of consumer characteristics,
and trafficker and product characteristics on online purchase
intention, the impact of social media is generally undervalued
in the literature.
This can be attributed to the fact that this is a lately
surfaced exploration area. The originality of our paper stems
from pressing a unborn exploration docket for consumers'
online purchase intentions.
III. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Organizations of all sizes admit the significance of
consumer exploration. transnational companies use advanced
analytic and conduct large- scale studies to more understand
their target request. Small and medium- sized businesses can
gain precious perceptive from checks, questionnaires and
concentrate groups. They may also work being data, similar
as assiduity reports, to define and reach their audiences .
Consumer testes constantly changing in response to
digitization, request trends, social factors, cerebral factors
and further. The arrival of social media, for illustration, has
converted how people engage with their favorite brands.
Companies worldwide are trying to keep up with these
changes and drive invention to remain competitive. .
The part of consumer exploration is to help associations
identify their guests' requirements, stations, preferences and
buying testes . This information allows them to define and
member their target requests, produce buyer personas and
maximize their advertising bones. Grant Canyon University
notes that consumer exploration can also keep small
businesses from making expensive miscalculations, similar as
developing products that nothing wants or needs. At the same
time, it enables them to understand and prognosticate client
testes in the business.
Generally, there are two ways to approach the consumer
testes exploration process. Depending on your budget and
marketing pretensions, you may use primary or secondary
exploration styles. The former can be further divided into
qualitative and quantitative exploration and consists of any
studies, checks, pates and other styles that you design and
apply yourself. For illustration, an association may survey
guests to determine how they feel about a particular good or
service on a scale from 1 to 10. That is quantitative
exploration. An open- concluded questionnaire, on the other
hand, provides qualitative data, explains MacAlester College.
Focus groups, interviews and other qualitative exploration

styles can give perceptive into the beginning reasons and
provocations of your guests.

VII. SUGGESTIONS
 Increased Convenience-
Convenience is increased because people don't have to
get out of bed to get what they want. . Now, most suppliers
engage with their customers using online platforms, which
can be accessed from anywhere in the world, as long as have
internet connection is available. Peoplemerely place orders,
send money, and wait for their items to arrive. People with
various impairments who find it difficult to participate in
physical shopping are now able to shop more easily and
readily..
 Increased Options-
Users no longer are constrained to one or a small
number of possibilities , thanks to onlinemarkets and e-shops.
People had specific stores and locations where they could
make purchases before online shopping became popular. For
instance, one could only purchase books from specified
supermarkets or bookshops. Most individuals found this
difficult because it required extensive travel and fumbling for
scarce resources. Given that the providers had little to no
competition, it also meant that these goods were extremely
expensive. But as a result of technological advancements,
providers and consumers have more access to the market,
expanding their possibilities. Today, anyone may simply
obtainanything they require in a wide variety of forms without
any restrictions.
 Increased Customer Interaction and Satisfaction-
Thanks to numerous technology channels, customers
may now readily send feedback to theirsuppliers or service
providers. For instance, there is a hotline that can be called
anytime there is a problem when using a decoder for
television. This not only saves time and money, but it also
enables good customer service. If it was poor, a number of
systems enable users to provide candid comments and even
keep track of the actions the supplier takes to improve.
Aside from that, internet buying platforms also provide
user feedback and interaction, which aids in guiding other
shoppers toward best choices
 No Geographical Limits-
Finally, online shopping platforms have given
customers access to the world through their screens. You can
now buy goods and services from all over the world with the
click of a button. This scenario allows clients to experience
and enjoy international culture, talent and technology without
having to physically travel there. For example, Russian art
lovers can easily add Kenyan crafts to their collections by

purchasing them online and having them delivered. This also
applies to music, copyrighted works and many other physical
goods. Thistechnology has eliminated geographic restrictions
for customers and increased market reach.
