Book Description

January 19, 1996 0471133582 978-0471133582 1
Electronic home shopping is, without a doubt, one of the most sensational developments to hit the retailing world since the advent of mail order shopping in the nineteenth century. One of the fastest-growing segments of the retail industry, it has mushroomed from a mere $350 million to $3 billion in volume in less than a decade. For the businessperson thinking about entering these new markets, the time has never been better. And now this unique study provides you with all the detailed information and analysis you need to do it right.

The Electronic Retailing Market ex-plores, in depth, every aspect of this dynamic new retailing segment, from its history and evolution, to the factors and trends that have contributed to its phenomenal growth of recent years, to its prospects for future growth. It begins with an overview of electronic retailing in the United States and then zeroes in for a detailed look at each of its three major markets: television shopping channels, infomercials, and interactive retailing (shopping by computer). Numerous charts and tables define and trace the development of trends, while insightful commentary explains how these trends are shaping electronic retailing today and how they are likely to impact upon its future.

But that's not all. This unique study also features a series of Competitive Profiles in which leaders in each of the three major markets reveal the strategies they used to beat out the competition. You'll learn the secrets behind the runaway success and sustained growth of QVC, HSN, Hawthorne Commu-nications, Regal Group, CompuServe, The Interaxx System, and other market leaders.

A vast compendium of crucial data on this fast-growing segment of the retail industry
* Detailed information on the size, growth, composition, and competitive environment of remote shopping and its three main markets
* A detailed exposition of demographic, socioeconomic, and other trends impacting on the U.S. retail market and their significance to electronic shopping

The Electronic Retailing Market is an indispensable tool for retailers, vendors, suppliers, and providers who would like to profit from this exciting new medium. It is also a source of valuable, hard-to-find information for current and prospective producers of home shopping programming.
