Digital Commerce Lecture for Advanced Digital & Social Media Strategy at UCLA...Valters Lauzums
E-commerce in 2024 is characterized by a dynamic blend of opportunities and significant challenges. Supply chain disruptions and inventory shortages are critical issues, leading to increased shipping delays and rising costs, which impact timely delivery and squeeze profit margins. Efficient logistics management is essential, yet it is often hampered by these external factors. Payment processing, while needing to ensure security and user convenience, grapples with preventing fraud and integrating diverse payment methods, adding another layer of complexity. Furthermore, fulfillment operations require a streamlined approach to handle volume spikes and maintain accuracy in order picking, packing, and shipping, all while meeting customers' heightened expectations for faster delivery times.
Amid these operational challenges, customer data has emerged as an important strategy. By focusing on personalization and enhancing customer experience from historical behavior, businesses can deliver improved website and brand experienced, better product recommendations, optimal promotions, and content to meet individual preferences. Better data analytics can also help in effectively creating marketing campaigns, improving customer retention, and driving product development and inventory management.
Innovative formats such as social commerce and live shopping are beginning to impact the digital commerce landscape, offering new ways to engage with customers and drive sales, and may provide opportunity for brands that have been priced out or seen a downturn with post-pandemic shopping behavior. Social commerce integrates shopping experiences directly into social media platforms, tapping into the massive user bases of these networks to increase reach and engagement. Live shopping, on the other hand, combines entertainment and real-time interaction, providing a dynamic platform for showcasing products and encouraging immediate purchases. These innovations not only enhance customer engagement but also provide valuable data for businesses to refine their strategies and deliver superior shopping experiences.
The e-commerce sector is evolving rapidly, and businesses that effectively manage operational challenges and implement innovative strategies are best positioned for long-term success.

3. Buyer Behavior
In industrial marketing, the buying process is more difficult
as compared to consumer marketing. The purchase
decisions in industrial marketing are based on many
factors, such as compliance with product Specifications
product quality, availability, timely supply, acceptable
payment and other commercial terms cost effectiveness,
after-sales service, and so on rather than on social and
psychological needs.
The buying decisions generally take a longer time and
involve many individuals from technical,
commercial/materials, and finance departments. After the
initial offer made by a seller, there are negotiations and
exchange of information between both the prospective
buyer and the seller’s organization.

4. Therefore, inter-organisational contacts take place and
interpersonal relationships are developed. The relationships
between the sellers and buyers are highly valued and they
become stable in the long run because Of a high degree of
interdependence. Changes are few and occur relatively slowly.
Buyers charge problems in searching out and qualifying
suppliers. The cost of selecting a supplier who cannot meet
delivery requirements or who delivers an unsatisfactory product
can be high.
Thus, the purchasing firm must be certain of a potential
supplier's technical, administrative, and financial capabilities. In
contrary, in consumer marketing the relationship between a
buyer and a seller is non-personal. Consumers change their
purchasing habits frequently and the buying decisions are always
based on physiological, social and psychological needs of the
members of a family household.
