  3. Practice Exam Question NetShops NetShopsbegan as a business to customers (B2C) e-commerce company in 2002. Founded by Doug Nielson, it began with a single online “store” and now owns and operates over 200 online stores selling a wide range of products targeted at various niche markets. One of the reasons that the firm has grown so quickly is its “NetShopsAffiliate Program”, which allows other businesses to place links on their own web sites to the NetShops’ website. When a customer purchases a product from NetShopsas a result of following one of these affiliate links, the affiliate company earns a commission on this sale. NetShopsis able to quickly launch additional online stores in niche markets for which traditional channels of distribution do not exist. No single online store accounts for more than 5 % of the total sales of NetShops. NetShopsmaintains an online database of all purchasers. The company uses software to obtain select personal data (e-mail and regular post addresses, for example) and to record purchases in their shops. NetShopsalso knows which of its sites and products customers have viewed. The firm can identify customers’ interests and purchasing trends, from which it can develop consumer profiles.
