Let’s talk about eCommerce

At Content Creators Coffee Time by IDEADECO

Arsenis Paschopoulos will be available to answer your questions about eCommerce.

E-Commerce, also known as electronic commerce, is a business model which involves transactions taking place on the internet. Stores that sell their products online are e-commerce stores or businesses. Today most eshops are able to widen their electronic commercial activities through their social media channels and their newsletters.

• 1979:?Michael Aldrich connected his television to a computer using his telephone line and there it was, the first idea was born of what we know today as eCommerce.
• 1994:?Jeff Bezos founded Amazon as an online store selling over one million different books. And eCommerce began to attract the attention of big companies.
• Mid-1990s and early 2000’s: Computers were found almost in every home and people started to buy things online.
• 1998:?PayPal was founded and finally credit cards could be used for payments online. Boom of eCommerce was real.
• 2008:?In less than a decade, online sales made up 3.4 percent of all sales.
• 2014:?Spectacular business growth with around 12-24 million online stores.
• 2021:?Everything happens online. Everything is sold online.?

The term is quite broad and includes Amazon, eBay, online banking, software services, remote service providers, or online course platforms (basically, any transaction made online). However, depending on the context, the term “eCommerce” is often used to refer to the typical online store that sells products to end consumers.

The eCommerce industry is growing exponentially, more online businesses are emerging, and the digital economy is continuously expanding while reaching every corner of the world (with internet access). Read more interesting facts about eCommerce in this?guide.

Meet our Sponsor: Workspot

WorkSpot is located in the heart of Piraeus: Ippodamias Sq, no 8, Piraeus, Greece, 18531.

Yes, a coworking space definitely means having a hot desk, a virtual office, the renting of serviced offices, the space itself and its design, the sunlight through its windows (endless mugs of coffee!), the essential tools, and everything that composes a coworking space suitable for work. But at WorkSpot they do not think that a coworking space is just that.

They value interaction. The active presence of businesspeople in the spaces of their interest, physical and virtual, the connection between people, the concept of network support…

The development of mutually beneficial collaborations and sharing creative ideas and expertise with their guests. That is what Coworking Space means to the people who created this business nest.
