Chapter 3 Mini Case
Suppose you are a consultant hired to advise Domestic Fabrics on how best to proceed.
1)
Is there any additional information you would want before making your recommendation?
David mentioned that the e-commerce website was unprofitable when he took over Domestic Fabrics, at this time was the e-commerce site only participating in B2C transactions? Does David currently use an in-house e-commerce platform for his more profitable B2B transactions? If not, would David be open to creating an e-commerce site for both the shower tunic for B2C and his other products for B2B?
2)
Are there other options that David should consider?
I think David should consider creating an in house e-commerce site that can handle both his B2B transactions and experimental B2C transactions of shower tunics. 3)
Given what you know so far, which options would you recommend?
David mentioned that 6 years after he shut down Domestic Fabrics internally operated B2C e-
commerce platform that the company doubled in size. So, I believe that the third option of Domestic Fabrics handling everything in-house is not the best option. Domestic Fabrics should start selling the shower tunics through a third-party site and have that third party site handle all logistics. This option has the lowest profit margins for Domestic Fabrics, but it also has the lowest amount of in-house work required. If the shower tunics sell well on the third-party site, then David should consider creating an in-house e-commerce site that can handle both his B2B transactions and experimental B2C transactions of shower tunics. This way he would already have confirmation that his B2C product sells in an online marketplace, and through the sales on the third-party site would have the capital to build a personal e-commerce site for Domestic Fabrics products. The creation site that can also handle David’s B2B transactions would allow for an easier ordering process for he many recurring clients.
