Introduction to Amazon
Amazon™ was Founded on July 5
th
1994 by Jeff Bezos in Bellevue,
Washington but didn’t go public until May 1997. Initially Amazon was an
online market place for books, but then expanded into a multitude of
product categories. Amazons growth started in 2017 after purchasing
Whole Foods Market Super market chain and is now the leading online
retailer in the world (Contibuters, n.d.).
I decided to choose Amazon as my research topic because it is quite a fascinating story about how one man with a dream and vision was able to build a company from just a small business in a garage to one of the most profitable companies in the world. His success has given small business entrepreneurs a platform to sell their goods, while at the same time being able to distribute them at a reasonable price all over the world (Contibuters, n.d.).

Many of the barriers consumers have for shopping online have been challenged and shifted, but in our ambition to guide our clients with their Digital Commerce offerings and journeys, we felt there was a need for a structured approach to this challenge, and a lack of insights into understanding the concerns, the critical elements to unlock the customer’s online shopping journey, and a deep understanding of the customer needs that would create successful online/omni-channel commerce offerings.

Mini-Case -Wild Foods.
A huge, highly regarded consumer packaged goods firm wishes to branch out from selling foods for humans to also perhaps selling food for pets. The company knows a lot about packaging, communications, and pricing. It has a great reputation in trade so the channel partners should be supportive (at least, grocery stores, Target and Walmart, etc., but it knows it will have to approach PetSmart and Petco). It figures that selling pet food can’t be all that different from their current strengths (snack foods, small packaged foods, etc.).
The company is beginning with cat food. It is developing product lines currently and plans to launch within 6 months. About a year after that, they’ll follow with their dog line. The company has talked about developing foods for other pets (birds, hamsters, ferrets, snakes), but to date no firm plans have been made.
The brand is going to be called Wild Foods and the new-to-the-world feature that the brand will offer is that these…

CASE
APPLICATION
MasterCar
Hologram on MasterCard credit card.
Mastering the Plan... Priceless
When MasterCard became a public corporation in May
2006, the momentous occasion signified the start of a new
way of doing things for the company's 4,600 employees
around the world. Company executives wanted to ensure
that every employee understood what such a change
meant and how MasterCard would be different after the
initial public offering (IPO). To do that, they decided to
hold the "largest single learning event in the company's
history."
This learning event, dubbed the Road Map to the
Future, was to be a series of intensive, 4.5-hour seminars
conducted in 110 workshops in 36 cities over a three-
week time frame. Rebecca Ray, the company's senior vice
president for global learning, was put in charge of the
event. She recognized that pulling it off effectively and
efficiently would require some serious and detailed plan-
