How can e-commerce business survive a bear market

With stocks tumbling into a bear market and prices on nearly everything continuing to soar, e-commerce businesses are facing great challenges. Consumers are buying fewer goods and shopping less due to the sky-high inflation. How can you steer your e-commerce business through this bear market and prepare for a potential economic downturn?

You can focus on profitable outcomes by implementing intelligent fulfillment practices in e-commerce. Here are some examples:

• Offer customers the option of receiving multiple orders in one package. This simple setting will enable you to reduce the delivery cost dramatically. 
• Offer a discount for customers who choose to pick up their purchases at a physical store. It does not only reduce your delivery costs but also makes your e-commerce more sustainable by minimizing unnecessary packaging. 
• Create subscription ordering and fulfillment capabilities to optimize your business and create more predictable revenue. You need a powerful e-commerce platform that allows customers to easily set up personalized subscriptions. 
• Optimize your e-commerce platform. A well-developed e-commerce solution is more important than ever.  Your platform should outperform your competitors in customer experience to keep your business growing.
