We
all have been amazed how the Internet makes our lives much easier prior to its
arrival. This had tremendously made everything possible at the power of your
fingertips. It makes our lives way easier than the usual such as shopping.
Moreover, online shopping is a great alternative for us in addressing our
shopping needs. Time won't matter anymore for people who want to shop at their
discretion. Their lifestyle is just not fit for shopping during regular hours.
Usually, these are the people who work on night shift. They are usually not
free when malls are open, which is a pain for their situation. Traditional
malls are just not available for them. They only visit traditional malls during
their day off at work. This is clearly harder for people who work on different
time schedule. It makes it easier for them nowadays since they now have online
shopping.
Most
offline businesses are now being made available to online as well. It has only
begun to expand last year in the country. I strongly believe it happened when
Lazada arrived in the country. They are actually one of the first online malls
established in the country. Some South East Asia countries also have Lazada on
their country. Ecommerce reached popularity in the country when they came in,
as compared to the previous years, which is prior to their arrival. The local
online scene was never the same again after they arrived. Since the competition
is lesser compared to other country, it's only natural to have it launched in
the country. Their challenge is how they will lure Internet users to visit
their online mall. Paying online is a very difficult for most online users
that's why it hard for them to lure them on their website. What makes it
difficult for them is that their credit card and personal information are
exposed online. Actually, credit cards are not widely used in the country. Majority
of the population rather prefer to pay in cash and conduct actual exchange in
transaction.
This
is why Ecommerce never took off early since customers have limited payment
options. It doesn't mean that customers have no clue about online payment. We
don't give online malls a second chance since we consider risk and disregard
reward right away. Most of the time, we just ignore online malls probably
because we are new to it. For us, all online malls are just put up to scam
local Internet users. This combination can easily tell to investors that it
will be hard to penetrate the local market. The Philippines’ Online Shopping Mall came out
with something to solve these Ecommerce woes that plagued the country for so
long. The Philippines' Online Shopping Mall finally introduced Cash on Delivery
or C.O.D. in online. Unlike other online malls, this won't require customers to
pay right away. As long as customers are guaranteed of their money it can be
easy for any online store to convince customers to try their website.
