Solving the Problem
I am going to use online shopping as my opportunity with the "problem" of having to travel to a physical store location. The growth of product variation in online shopping is the goal of this opportunity to hopefully one day be able to have nearly everything possible to buy be available online. I think the best step in the right direction to get to this point is to simply have more HQ's and more warehouses for online retailers. Amazon is expanding and building a new HQ which brings in more employees and therefore more ideas. Having more warehouses is simply having more areas to store product and having the product be more likely to be close to the customer for fast shipping time.

Hey Shaun,
ReplyDeleteThe more distribution plants there are around the faster they can get stuff to all parts of the country, so I completely agree, it isn't every time that I don't get my amazon shipment in two days but it does happen once in a while and I would love to see the day when they have enough plants around that they can ship around the entire US in two days. While your plan sounds good on paper, Amazon would have to make sure it was worth their money to set up a new warehouse in a location by seeing how many prime members they have in that area already, and how many they think that they can get by marketing their new warehouse.
