If you’re browsing the web and some inexplicable force compels you to buy something on the spot, you may already have one of these sites bookmarked: eBay, Alibaba, or Amazon. The latter is arguably the largest and the most popular out of the three, which is exactly what makes it so interesting from a business standpoint.
Those of you unfamiliar with this platform can be brought up to speed in just a few sentences. Simply put, it is an e-commerce company that is considered to be the largest online retailer currently in business. They offer a variety of services all over the world via a chain of localized online storefronts (each servicing a particular region – Europe, Asia, Oceania, and the Americas). It offers nearly complete global coverage.
The company was established by Jeff Bezos in 1994, back when the internet was in its infancy stages. Curiously, before the company was branded Amazon, it went through a brief stint being known as “Cadabra.”
The platform was initially conceived to be an online bookstore, but it later underwent a multitude of changes to become the leading force in online retail, quickly merging other competing brands and furthering its stranglehold on worldwide business.
Currently, the platform sells about 400 million products on its marketplace, ranging from music and books to movie streaming, electronics, and countless other things that can be thought of.

Bezos claims the name “Amazon” was picked from a dictionary with the sole reason of giving his venture an exotic name, and given how the Amazon is the longest (and largest) river in the world, the name begins to take on a new meaning.
Is there a secret ingredient to Amazon’s marketing strategy, though? Quite simply, it uses a variety of methods to convert users that have been passing by into loyal, long-term customers. And since the representation of products is quite large, they can easily market towards a large variety of clients, in virtually any niche possible.
All they do is aimed at maintaining brand loyalty: associate programs, drone deliveries and its “Prime” program may be worth a closer look. Associated materials can be found below.Amazon Kindle StrategyStructure & Operations
