One way we may consider 'growing' out of this mess, is to 'grow' ourselves globally. WE must take action to proactively take control of the market in order to turn it around...take ourselves out of the unemployment line - and maybe a neighbor or family member with us. Grow through eCommerce - doing BUSINESS over the WEB. Opening this portal can potentially increase revenue coming to Michigan, and improve our economic forecast, or at the very least help us pay our monthly bills.
The most popular eCommerce sites include online shopping - which is a phenomenom that has overtaken the retail world. And you know what they say, right? If you can't beat 'em, join 'em.
Likely eCommerce site owners include:
- anyone wishing to sell their product online (hobbyists, artists, manufacturers, information),
- anyone who already has a business (small or large), and maybe even a website, but doesn’t yet take advantage of the global market or building revenue from their site through ads or sales,
- anyone who is starting a business (bricks/mortar or surf/click) and needs a web presence
- anyone who wishes to develop/design websites for others who need an eCommerce site
- anyone who decides they want to hire a consultant to build their site, and they want to be wise about what they ask for and how much they pay the consultant
- anyone who wishes to learn more about mobile technologies and web efficiencies
JCC is now offering an eCommerce program, classes start Fall 2009. Get growing!
