Why do you think “AMAZON” became successful

1 answer:

3 0

I believe that Amazon became successful as a business model by in some ways mimicking Sears model. At first Amazon only sold books and once they had mastered that successfully they were able to put many independent book stores out of business and then focused their energies on every other non perishable item that people needed. They took on toys clothing, food items etc. Sears did this by providing items out of their catalog. Amazon does this from their online app. people create their accounts and can search from their phones and have things sent directly to their homes. The advancement of Amazon can be directly related to the demise of shopping malls.

Answer:

Yield management pricing

Explanation:

Yield management pricing is the charging of different prices for a given set of capacity at a specific time in order to maximize revenue. This is based on the demand and supply in the market and is very common in industries such as airlines, hotels and resorts. When there is very high demand for airline seats, prices for them are high. However, if some of those passengers decided to refund their tickets, close to departure and the flight would be taking off soon, instead of flying with empty seats and no revenue from them, the airline would decide to sell these same seats at a cheaper rate in order to gain some revenue. This is a form of revenue maximization.
