You must have the following elements to conduct an e-commerce
solution:
- A product.
- A place to sell the product - in the
e-commerce case a website displays the products in some
way and acts as the place.
- A good website marketing strategy,
this helps in gaining valuable business.
- A way to accept orders - normally
a secure on-line form.
- A way to accept money - normally a
merchant account is recommended to handle your credit
card payments. This piece requires a SSL certificate ordering
page and a connection to your merchant account.
- A fulfillment facility to ship products
to customers (you could outsource this if you decide).
In the case of software etc. a fulfillment can occur over
the Web through a file download mechanism.
- A way to accept returns.
- A way to handle warrantee claims if
necessary.
A way to provide customer service
(often through email, on-line forms, on-line knowledge bases
and FAQ's, etc.) In addition, there is often a strong desire
to integrate other business functions or practices into the
e-commerce offering. An extremely simple example -- you might
want to be able to show the customer the exact status of an
order.
