Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz

composed of e-consumers, an adult public with high purchasing power and countless segmentation possibilities. bitMail
uses technological resources that enable an excellent return to the client supported on permission marketing (opt-in,

online purchases, being monthly visited by more than 400 thousand different users. In their pages, advertisers and
virtual stores can spread their products and services to an adult public with high purchasing power, obtaining an
excellent return in sales and brands publicity.
E-customer Retention Management – Receiving complaints from clients should be seen as a gift in electronic retail.
The worst client is the one who’s unsatisfied with the purchase, doesn’t complain but won’t go shopping in that store
again. Thinking about that, e-bit developed a special product for those stores that participate in e-bit Satisfaction
Survey, and that can now choose to receive unsatisfied clients comments in real time, with the order number. This
way, it is possible to immediately detect the eventual problem and act in order to solve it and retain the client,
converting an unsatisfied customer into a loyal one. Find out more information concerning this e-bit innovation by

11. 1.1 - End off first time!
The first six months of 2012 continued to trigger the numbers of Brazilian e-commerce. Between the period from 01/01/2012
to 30/06/2012 were earned US$ 5.06 billion in online sales in the country, which meant a nominal increase of 21% compared to
the same period last year, which recorded US$ 4.16 billion.
The Brazilian economy has´t very calm period during the first half, facing the crisis that hit Europe and the United States, a
decline of nearly 26% of job creation (according to the Ministry of Labour) and retraction of 3.8 % in industrial production (IBGE
data). The tax cuts in some sectors and encouraging credit were not enough to boost the economy as the expectation of 25%.
Despite a slowdown, although we noticed a sustainable growth in e-commerce.

the continuous influx of “C Class”. In the first half of the year, 5.6 million people made their first purchase online yet, which
means we are now 37.6 million e-customers.

13. One of the main factors that contribute to the retention of e-consumers are the services provided by brazilian online stores.
Although Brazil still presents some logistical barriers affecting the industry, the e-consumers remain secure and confident in making
online purchases. According to data collected by e-bit, in partnership with the Movimento Internet Segura (MIS), group of the Câmara
Brasileira de Comércio Eletrônico (camara-e.net), 85.40% was the percentage of satisfaction with virtual trade in the first half, within
a cut-off of 85% of excellence. Several companies have reduced their interest free payment terms, increased freight charges and
extended delivery times to customers, which may have impacted on consumer e-satisfaction.
1.2 - Satisfaction with e-commerce

As in traditional retail, seasonal dates are of great importance for e-commerce, adding relevant numbers to the industry. To get an
idea, Valentine's Day and Mother's Day contributed US$ 843 million from US$ 5.06 billion earned in the first half, representing
16.6% of total sales in the first half.

14. 1.3 - The preferred categories of e-consumers
The preferences and options of virtual consumers have been changing in recent times. Historically, as they become more
familiar and confident in the channel, the e-consumers shift their preferences, venturing into products that were not so
common in virtual carts.
In the first half of the year was no different. "Fashion and Accessories", which has been gaining ground rapidly in the past two
years, reached the 3rd position in the ranking of best-selling five categories, with 11% of total orders. In the same period last
year, there was neither figured in the rankings. This is due to greater comfort in purchasing items of clothing on the internet,
and companies in the segment witch have invested in technology and improvements in the standardization of those products.
The final placement of the most sold categorys in the first half was drawn as follows: "Appliances" in first (13%), "Health and
beauty" in second (13%), followed by "Fashion and Accessories" (11%), "Books, magazine subscriptions and newspapers" (10%)
and "Computers" (9%) completed the ranking.

15. 1.4 - About the future
During the remainder of 2012, online sales should continue to grow at the same rate presented in the 1st half. It is expected
that in the second part of the year, the sector to grow 20% over the same period last year, being earned an additional $ 6.05
billion, ending the year with a total of US$ 11.6 billion, a nominal growth of 20% over 2011. Historically, 55% of annual sales
belong to the period between July 1st and December 31st .
The average ticket must present fall in the second half. It is expected that in the last six months of 2012, the average amount
spent on online purchases will be around US$ 163,3. This can be explained by the increasing preference of e-consumers with
lower value, as the segment "Fashion and Accessories". However, the volume of requests should maintain a good pace.

16. One of the main factors for most of the e-commerce revenues refer to the 2nd half is the highest number of seasonal dates
during this period. Besides having Father's Day and Children's Day, which have large financial stake in e-commerce, at the end
of the year, Christmas arrives as the sharper date and helps out with higher sales volume. Special Dates as Black Friday (late
November) and Cyber Monday (after Christmas), may boost sales as occurred in 2011.
It is expected that 5.4 million people make their first purchase online between July/12 and December/12. Thus, we would
have 11 million new customers by the end of 2012, reaching a total population of 43 million.

27. 3.1 - M-Commerce: More than a trend, a reality
This chapter is much more than a simple prediction of how the market will behave from now on, it is a reality, yet subtle,
that should gain significant strength along with the evolution of the sector.
In comparison to U.S., where e-commerce has a much greater maturity than in Brazil, M-commerce still has a lot to
develop. The trend, however, for both countries, is the sector will grow, mainly due to higher sales of smartphones and the
increasing use of internet on mobile devices.
According to eMarketer, mobile commerce sales will reach US$ 11.6 billion this year in the U.S., representing
approximately 5% of total retail sales, up from 73.1% in compared to 2011.

interesting finding is the relation to the volume of purchases of these two profiles.

Also according to the study data, the number of satisfaction of e-consumers who shop via mobile was lower if compared to
the regular e-commerce. This can be explained by the fact that many of these e-consumers are heavy users (people in the
last six months who effected 4 or more online shopping) and consequently more demanding. Another important factor is
that not all websites are suited to these platforms, which makes navigation and usability of some shopping more complex
for these consumers.

33. 4.1 – Trends: Amazon in Brazil
Throughout the year of 2012 there was much talk about the arrival of Amazon in Brazil. Keeping this in the radar, e-bit conducted a
study that sought to understand how e-consumers perceive the arrival of the giant in the local market, tracing his profile and
behavior. The online survey was conducted between Augusto 3rd and 12 of 2012 and received responses from 3125 respondents.
According to the survey, little more than a quarter of respondents have the habit of buying outside the country, and of these, 26%
have bought from Amazon. These consumers also spend more: While the average ticket purchases abroad is US$ 78,3, Amazon is US$
85,30. The value is however lower than the major competitor of Amazon, BestBuy, which has an average ticket of US$ 105,1.
The price, by the way, is an important factor for e-consumers who buy outside the country, despite spending more on Amazon,
consider the main reason for having made the purchase.
Analyzing the profile of consumers who shop outside the country, we find out that: There is a higher concentration in “High-school”
in relation to the general Brazilian e-consumer: 38% versus 28%. Furthermore, 54% are men and 58% belongs to the B class, according
to the Brazilian socio-economic classification.

The study also showed relevant data about the reputation of Amazon opening a virtual store in Brazilian soil.
According to data, 26% of customers who have already bought from Amazon have heard that the American company will
have a store in Brazil soon.
With the survey information, it was possible to find out what consumers expect from the “Brazilian Amazon" on its
performance in the brazilian e-commerce: "Greater product diversity," followed by "innovative products". This means that,
somehow, the e-consumers are prepared to learn about new products and segments and purchase them online.
Finally, only 4% of respondents said they would not buy in the Amazon of Brazil, while 48% said they did not know and 48%
will buy a product in the Brazilian version of the company.

37. 4.2 – The value of the price search in Brazilian e-commerce
In 2012, the Brazilian e-commerce should move about R$ 11.6 billion, an increase of 20% compared to 2011. Some drivers
of growth of e-commerce are: increasing number of households with computers, the spread of broadband access,
maturation and consolidation of the structure of online retail and safety in operations (secure ways of payment and
delivery reliability).
A huge choice of e-commerce only translates into value for consumers in terms of more factor that drives its growth:
search engines and price comparisons sites. These mechanisms allow consumers to more easily find what they want and
create a huge price transparency, saving money.
Based on the products prices in Buscapé, it was built for the month of May 2012, a preliminary indicator to assess the
potential gains with the additional price search in e-commerce. If we consider the 230,000 prices that comprised the FIPE
/ Buscapé Index of MAY/12, the average difference between the highest and lowest prices was 39.2%, or R $ 560.48,
37
/ Buscapé Index of MAY/12, the average difference between the highest and lowest prices was 39.2%, or R $ 560.48,
roughly a minimum wage in Brazil. The lowest average price in e-commerce (US$ 709,22) is 14% lower than the average
price (US$ 824,08), and it is this range that would stand to gain additional potential based on the searches for the best
prices. Hypothetically, if the difference between the lowest price and the average price is reduced to 7%, the additional
savings for consumers in e-commerce in 2012 would be US$ 793 million.
Considering the current earnings of about US$ 2.9 billion estimated above, we arrive at a potential gain of $ 4.76 billion
directly related to transparency and encouraging competition derived from price comparison engines on the Internet.
The difference of 39.2% between the highest price and the lowest price, means that, on average, for every 2 products
bought by consumers who pay the highest price the consumer pays the lowest price that could buy 3 products.
