ICT unit 8 AO3

choice, convenience, cost, location and flexibility



CHOICE

- Doesn’t rely on one location, so you can shop anywhere.

- Groceries – Waitrose (Ocado)

- Clothes – bigger range

- DVDs

- Quickly search rather than wander around.

CONVENIENCE



- Shop from your sofa!

- You don’t have to visit the vendor

- Order in bulk (saves money)

- Easily and conveniently compare price

o Utilities

o Insurance

COST

OLD WAY

- Rent for premises

- Advertise

- Petrol

- Staff

- Elec heating

NEW WAY

- less costs – rent / utilities / staff etc…

… this is partly why goods are often cheaper on the net.

LOCATION

- Buying – it’s delivered to you FROM ANYWHERE so your location doesn’t matter.

- SELLING –

But… it’s more difficult to sell impulse items on the internet.

FLEXIBILITY
