Shopping or selling? What E-Commerce Means For Everyone

If I could help it, I do most of my shopping online. No traffic, no commuter woes, no queues. I even dabbled in selling online myself for a couple of years but I got swamped with work that my shop had to take a backseat.

Recently, online shopping has grown at such a rate that even those with no consistent access to the internet know that you can order almost anything online – from unmentionables to perishables – delivered right to your doorstep.

The Philippine e-commerce industry weighs in at 7-13% of our gross domestic product. It may not seem much but that only covers the first quarter of 2015. According to latest data, there are 38 million Filipino internet users, 28% of whom, shop online. That’s over 10M customers, and counting.

Think e-commerce is a viable business? Then join the DigitalFilipino E-Commerce Entrepreneurs Summit Manila 2015 happening on August 29 at the Ballroom of Best Western Plus Antel Hotel, Makati Avenue, Makati City.

This whole-day event aims to empower entrepreneurs, decision makers, marketers, strategists, sales managers, supply chain managers, brand managers, to go from change thinkers to change makers. E-commerce practitioners will share insights and strategies on making e-commerce work and help grow your business, no matter the industry.
