We
have always wondered how we can avoid all the hardships we go thru whenever we
go to traditional malls to shop. It is a good thing that we now have an
alternative shopping in online shopping. Since we control the time, we can do
it whenever we want. During at night, that's when they are only active and have
little free time to do what they want. 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. They are unable to visit malls when they please unlike
most people. It's only during holidays or weekends when they can visit these
traditional malls.
For
people who work under these weird schedules, it is really hard for them to get
access on these traditional malls. It's a good thing for them that online
shopping is getting popular now in the country. Most of the businesses are now
being put up online. Actually, this only started last year in the Philippines.
When Lazada arrived in the Philippines, other online malls were established as
well. It is one of the first online malls to be established in the Philippines.
They are also available in other South East Asia countries.
The
Philippines’ Online Shopping Mall made a splash in the local Ecommerce market
compared a couple of years ago where online shopping didn't exist at all
Actually, their impact on Ecommerce can't be disregarded. Actually, the
competition is very low in the country so it only made sense for them to launch
it here. It's more hard for them on how to tell local online users to check
their lazada.com.ph website. Most of the online users are not fan of online
payment that's why online users are hard to convert to customers. The local
online users were just hesitant to use their credit card since it exposes their
personal details. What makes it challenging is that majority of the population
are not credit card owners. This hampered the growth of Ecommerce in the
country. This doesn't mean that local online users are not familiar with online
transactions. Since we initially see risk, we don't give online malls any
benefit of the doubt.
Moreover,
we just disregard online malls in general from first encounter. Online malls
for us are all scams, which is sad. The issues are the reasons why Ecommerce is
a challenging business in the Philippines. They finally came up with a solution
to solve these issues that had derailed the growth of Ecommerce for so long.
They were able to come up with Cash on Delivery or C.O.D. as an alternative
payment method to their customers. They don't necessarily require their
customers to pay right away only until they received their order package in
real time. This is a very enticing setup for any customer as they can keep
their money until they receive their order. Therefore, giving them a chance to
go for other options in case their orders don’t push through.
