Growing
up, we’ve learned to adopt in the past culture as well as this generation where
Internet usage is pretty common and already part of our daily leaving. Not long
when Internet was just an option for us whenever we want to look for information.
Online shopping is taking its share in popularity among the local online users
in the Philippines. Online users actually didn't find online shopping reliable
a couple of years ago. One factor is that both online and offline scams have a
high rate here in the country. As a result, everyone in the country always
reconsiders transactions online. What was closest considered in Ecommerce was
local online classified websites.
Local
classified websites helped prepare the arrival of local online malls. The
presence of online marketplace grew since their arrival in the country. Buy and
sell was harder online classified wasn't available yet and relied only thru
offline. Online users are using it as their measurement in pricing. This
eventually helped revolunize on how online users behave for shopping ideas.
More online users go to these type of websites in search for buy and sell
prospects. This was very different from Ecommerce since it is being populated
of sellable items care of third party resellers or suppliers. It's most likely
that transactions are being done offline by third party resellers.
Group
buying websites also has its fair share for the local online user behavior.
They showed the way for the Ecommerce websites in the country. In the Philippines,
local online users were already familiar by the local Ecommerce websites were
launched. The risk in online shopping is way lower than what they could be
getting. The amazing deals offered to customers from group buy websites were
very rare. A lot of deals are being offered way lower than it is supposed to by
group buy websites, making it harder for customers to ignore. Lazada
Philippines was launched in the country last year. They are an online mall
venture available in South East Asia. The Samwer brothers own this venture under
there German based company Rocket Internet.
They
made significant impact in the local Ecommerce industry with their offering of
unconventional offline payment methods. Their payment method gave customers
option on which payment they find more suiting. Credit cards and PayPal are
usually the online payment method accepted by most online stores. This hampers
the customers in availing the items they want since they are limited in paying
online the conventional way. Local online users first introduced C.O.D. or Cash
on Delivery. This payment method helps them to tap the untapped marketing in
the country. It is the majority of the local consumer market in the country.
Now that it has been tapped, it allowed the Ecommerce industry to further grow.
