Introduction
• The preferred choice for many ambitious business owners is to
understand the impact of e-commerce on Business.
• Most people think it is a secure, adaptable sector with several
success stories.
• Starting an online store and earning a comfortable income
several years ago was simple.
• However, the e-commerce/e-business sector has seen a
significant transformation over time.
• Considering the prevalence of mobile phones and the internet at
all societal levels throughout the globe, e-commerce is expanding
rapidly.
• No matter what specialty you select, the rivalry is more intense.
Additionally, the dynamics of the sector are now harsh.
• The opportunities and challenges that new e-commerce
enterprises encounter have increased because of this.
Differences between traditional business and e-business

Meaning or Concept

Traditional businesses have a


physical presence that allows
customers to interact with
products before making a
purchase, while e-businesses
have the advantage of being
able to reach a global
audience and operate with
lower overhead costs.
Opportunities of E-commerce on Business
1. Reduced Business Costs
• Operating an online company is less expensive since employees are unnecessary at every site, and surveillance staff are rarely
essential. Only the sales department needs a team.
• No storage facility is required in some situations where it’s an immediate sale. That is mostly the cause of some pricing in online
retailers being less expensive than typical prices in a traditional store.

2. Customer Data
• Online shopping benefits companies by enabling them to gather client information for further processing. Companies may sell
their goods more effectively using consumer purchasing patterns, statistics, and desires.
• By analysing e-commerce data to predict when demand for a product will be higher or lower, they may reduce the likelihood of
overstocking or understocking it.

3. Personalization
• The customer experience must also be monitored in online companies, which also allows a chance to customize offers,
newsletters, and other materials to appeal to various clients.
• A common e-commerce trend is the development of mobile applications for virtual and augmented reality for businesses to give
their customers an improved and more personalized service.

4. Business Growth
• With the help of technology, it is simpler to advance and carry out your company’s thoughts. Expenses are lower, and you can
highlight the goods you want to sell. Addressing the consumer is made feasible by changing the information.
• Marketing is readily accessible, as are many strategies for generating leads. A crucial aspect to keep in mind through this
procedure is openness.

5. Affordable Promotion
• E-commerce is available 24 hours a day. Customers may use e-commerce at any moment of the day to make any purchases and
acquire all the data they need.
• The openness enhances the ability to produce leads and revenue and strengthens the interaction between customers and
retailers.
Challenges of E-commerce on Business (1)
1. Cybersecurity & Data Security
• One of the main difficulties in eCommerce is privacy violations. Engaging with eCommerce involves a lot of facts
and figures, and a data-related technological problem might seriously harm the retailer activities and reputation.
• This can trigger a lot of fraud and put the company in danger. Organizations are required to save different
consumer data, such as the name, address, contact details, email address, and age of the customer.
• Significant expenditures are needed to protect the data from misuse. Thus, the e-commerce app must be capable
of keeping customer information confidential. Thus, impact of e-commerce on business is challenged by
cybersecurity and data security.
2. Changing Customer Trends and Market Conditions
• The business model that is evolving and transforming the most quickly is e-commerce. The impact of e-commerce
on business is well-illustrated with the changing customer trends and market conditions.
• Staying up is challenging, and failing to do so can be expensive. Numerous lists discussing the newest e-commerce
trends can be found online, which continually pressures firms.
3. Strategic Return & Refund Programs
• Currently, most online retailers provide free or highly affordable return and refund policies. But surprisingly, only
some companies with a free return and refund policy deliver hassle-free transactions.
• Create your policies with the smallest amount of work on the side of those who need to return items in mind.
Buyers may find tactics like offering shop credits for refunds and requesting they repack things and pay the return
shipping expenses overly demanding.
Challenges of E-commerce on Business (2)
4. Customer Satisfaction & Customer Loyalty
• These days, keeping clients is always tricky, especially for e-commerce companies. In addition, brand loyalty varies with the
state of the economy.
• Because of this, having a solid customer loyalty program is crucial, which point out the impact of ecommerce. Establishing these
strategies will make it easier for your clients to work with you again.
5. Mobile-Dependent Shoppers
• The use of smartphones has surpassed that of desktop computers. Therefore, your consumer must be able to utilize mobile
phones on e-commerce sites or apps to explore and make purchases.
• Your e-commerce app thus must be optimized for smartphones. Ensure that your mobile app developers know your need for
your application to be adaptable for every mobile platform if you have a personalized build.
• Customers only pay attention briefly, particularly if they’re on a tight schedule. This implies that your e-commerce site or app
must be incredibly effective at providing users with the details they want as soon as possible.
6. Accessibility/Connection Challenges
• Low bandwidth and unreliable connection are common challenges. However, the lack of sufficient and reliable electronic
payment services.
• Costly and limited internet connection is a widespread problem in our country. Consumer dissatisfaction due to inability to
delivering correct product on time.

Automation and Job Displacement: While the Internet has created new opportunities, it has also led to
concerns about job displacement due to automation. Automation technologies, driven by the Internet of

may become obsolete, necessitating a shift in workforce skills and a focus on roles that require creativity,
critical thinking, and emotional intelligence.

and physical touch, and then check the same product online to check
for alternatives and price options. This gives more clarity and purchase
options to the interested buyers.
Impact of E-Commerce on Real Estate
A Shift in Retail Space Demand: E-commerce has led to a significant shift in demand for retail space. Traditional
brick-and-mortar stores are facing increased competition from online retailers, leading to a decrease in demand
for physical retail spaces.

Increased Demand for Warehousing and Distribution Centers: On the flip side, the growth of e-commerce has
created a surge in demand for warehousing and distribution centers. As online retailers strive to meet consumer
expectations for quick and efficient delivery, the need for strategically located warehouses has skyrocketed.

Expansion of Last-Mile Delivery Networks: The rise of e-commerce has also fueled the expansion of last-mile
delivery networks. With the increased demand for fast and reliable deliveries, logistics companies and e-
commerce retailers are actively seeking space in urban areas closer to the end consumers.

Evolution of Retail Space Design: To adapt to the changing retail landscape, commercial real estate developers
and property owners have had to reimagine the design and functionality of retail spaces. Traditional retail spaces
are being transformed into mixed-use developments that incorporate a combination of retail, entertainment,
dining, and experiential components.

Repurposing of Retail Spaces: As the demand for traditional retail spaces declines, property owners are
exploring alternative uses for vacant or underutilized properties. Some retail spaces are being repurposed for
non-retail uses such as offices, coworking spaces, healthcare facilities, or entertainment venues. This adaptive
reuse of space helps revitalize struggling retail properties and brings new life to commercial real estate.

Impact on Investor Strategies: The impact of e-commerce on commercial real estate has also influenced investor
strategies. Investors are now focusing on acquiring and developing properties that support the e-commerce
ecosystem, such as warehouses, distribution centers, and logistics facilities.

Innovation and Technology Integration: The integration of technology and innovation has become crucial in
commercial real estate. Property owners are incorporating advanced technologies like automation, robotics, and
artificial intelligence to optimize warehouse operations, improve efficiency, and streamline the supply chain.

Challenges for Retailers and Landlords: While e-commerce offers numerous benefits, it also presents
challenges for retailers and landlords. Traditional retailers must adapt their business models to include an online
presence and omnichannel strategies to remain competitive.
How e-commerce impact on commercial real estate in inflation
1. Diversification of Revenue Streams: E-commerce provides an additional revenue stream for commercial real estate properties, especially those with a retail
component. By embracing e-commerce, property owners can tap into the growing online market and diversify their revenue sources beyond traditional brick-
and-mortar retail. This diversification helps mitigate the impact of rising costs and inflation on commercial properties.

2. Increased Demand for Industrial and Warehouse Spaces: E-commerce relies heavily on efficient logistics and distribution networks. As online retail
continues to expand, there is a growing demand for industrial and warehouse spaces to support the storage, packaging, and distribution of goods. This
increased demand for industrial real estate helps offset the effects of inflation and provides stability to the commercial real estate market.

3. Adaptation of Retail Spaces: Traditional retailers may face challenges in maintaining profitability due to rising costs. However, by adapting their business
models and incorporating e-commerce strategies, retailers can offset some of the effects of inflation. This adaptation includes integrating online sales with
physical stores, implementing omnichannel approaches, and optimizing retail spaces to cater to both in-store and online experiences.

4. Cost Efficiency and Operational Optimization: E-commerce allows retailers to streamline their operations and reduce costs. By leveraging online platforms,
retailers can reach a broader customer base without the need for extensive physical storefronts. This cost-efficient approach can help offset the impact of
inflation on operating expenses, such as rent, utilities, and labor costs, allowing commercial real estate tenants to manage their budgets more effectively.

5. Integration of Technology and Automation: The integration of technology extends to commercial real estate, where property owners and tenants can
leverage smart building systems, data analytics, and automation to optimize energy usage, improve space utilization, and enhance efficiency. By adopting these
technologies, commercial real estate stakeholders can mitigate the impact of inflation by reducing operational costs and improving performance.

6. Supply Chain Resilience: E-commerce often involves a distributed supply chain network to ensure timely deliveries. E-commerce enables businesses to
source products and materials from various suppliers, reducing reliance on specific regions or markets. This diversification of the supply chain helps mitigate
the risks associated with inflation and ensures the continuity of operations.

7. Flexibility and Adaptability: E-commerce provides commercial real estate with the flexibility to adapt to changing market dynamics and consumer
preferences. As the retail landscape evolves, properties can be repurposed to accommodate new uses or meet the evolving demands of e-commerce This
adaptability ensures that commercial real estate remains relevant and resilient in the face of inflationary pressures.

Meaning & Benefits to Digital Delivery
What Is Digital Delivery?
Digital delivery refers to information being transferred among electronic devices such as mobile
phones, computers, iPads, and more. This allows information to be sent back and forth through
various devices to many employees. With companies decreasing their reliance on paper files, they
can become more efficient overall through digital communication among employees, clients, and
more. Below are some of the benefits of digital delivery for organizations.
1. It’s Environmentally Friendly
Digital delivery allows companies to significantly decrease the amount of paper they use and buy.
This means that the environment can benefit since it would decrease the number of trees being cut
down every day and, therefore, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. This also means
that companies will save money and decrease their costs each year. As more and more companies
rapidly decrease the amount of paper they consume, the world will become a healthier place.
2. It Creates More Efficient Communication
Employees and clients can receive information much faster digitally when compared to reliance on
paper files being moved by hand. The speed of technology has increased and will continue to do so
over time. With this type of delivery, companies are now able to offer immediate responses, online
responses, personalization, and greater accessibility to customers. This digital transformation allows
businesses to engage more easily and effectively with their clients and potential customers.
3. It Encourages eLearning
This type of communication easily allows organizations to utilize eLearning, where employees attend
training programs online. According to a recent article on superoffice.com, “roughly 86% of
businesses believe that cloud technology is critical to digital transformation.” More and more
companies acknowledge the importance of using digital methods for communication. You should
want your company to prepare for the demands of the future by implementing artificial intelligence
in the workplace. The sooner your company embraces digital delivery, the better.
