Hey, guys!
So, I've read an article about Amazon taking complete control of ecommerce, link is here.
What's your take on this? Do you believe that in few years only the few, very local and extremely customer-focused services/brands will survive and the rest will be slowly pushed aside by Amazon?
Do you believe that ecommerce guys will be left fighting for miniature breadcrumbs while Amazon takes away a complete pie off the table?
I am not in ecommerce and simply asking what others think.
In my uneducated opinion, Amazon is a platform that facilitates brand-building and should be used as a partner instead of a competitor. Also, instead of completely depending on Amazon, people should probably use it as another platform to promote/sell their products and then redirect them onto their personal websites, which has even better shopping experience than Amazon.
Just my 2c, what is yours?
