As an average person, we are involved in two types of E-Commerce. 

• B2C (Business to Consumer)

In Business to Consumer, Businesses interacts with people by selling products online. People just click to add into their shopping cart and another click for payment. Usually payment is through Paypal. One of the earliest user is Amazon.

Nowadays, many businesses expand to this type of business. One good example is online supermarkets to meet the needs of busy people. Also locally, young entrepreneurs also use this to set up businesses like online blogshops.

• C2C (Consumer to Consumer)

C2C gives DIY people a chance to sell their products. In etsy, people have the chance to sell the things that are handmade or custom ordered.

BUT...

Either way, you need to get people to know about your products! These are the steps that are usually practiced. Miss either steps, all your efforts may be wasted. 

With technology being so advanced, it becomes part of our daily lives as it is integrated into our smart phones. 

Personally, as a consumer most of the time, I do a lot of shopping. And with them being so accessible on the mobile phone, I am frequently purchasing something. E-Commerce is something I would say a lot of businesses or now even people who do something as a hobby and sells it off can benefit from. 

I like to see it as though it can be detrimental to our pockets sometimes it is helping the economy.
