Question 1. John is currently an engineer at an
automobile manufacturer in Ontario. Next year he is going to start
his own automobile parts manufacturing company in Vancouver. He
wants his company to be entirely e-commerce and he wants to sell
his products to retailers of automotive parts and accessories, such
as Lordco. He needs to know how to find and connect with customers
but he is unsure how to do so. John also is worried about buying
the right hardware and software because he only has a limited
amount of money to spend. He knows that product ordering and
billing is a critical part of doing business online and he has a
lot to learn. Most of all, John is concerned about online theft of
information so he wants to make sure that from the time a customer
makes an order until the parts are delivered that all information
is safe. This will be John’s first time in business and he is a
little unsure of himself. He decides that he needs to hire you to
describe to him some of the basics about the type of e-commerce
business he is getting into and also to help him solve his business
problems. You are a business expert and knowledge worker and you
have studied Busi 237. Using the key terms and concepts from your
textbook explain what John needs to do.
