Everyone loves to get something new, most especially when it has to do with shopping, some people can even go crazy for that...
We were born and brought up with the style of going to the market or boutique or the supermarket or mall to shop, so we can be able to see and test what exactly would suit us according to our financial status...
But nowadays, life is getting better, technology has been invented and has flooded the earth, meeting lazy or busy people at the point of their needs, at any time, and any day...
In this current century, you know what people wants? They want you to make them lazy, what do I mean? I don't always have to cook when I can just place an order online, and my desired delicacies will be delivered even at my door step, and life moves on...
That seems very easy and cool right? But what if you don't get your desired taste? You will first of all dispise that brand and won't want to promote or sell the brand to another customer, instead, you will have to go find another company product which might still not work for you...
We must have seen or heard about this trend WHAT YOUR ORDERED VS WHAT YOU GOT
Why is that? I see a very nice trouser online and It caught my interest to get it, and then when I place my order for such products, I end up blaming myself for getting it...
I'll then start saying things like but why, how, it was looking very fine when I saw it, and I trusted this site, all my money, my time, etc..
Some sites might even want to sell their products desperately and then after you place an order of a particular goods and size, but because of the desperateness of their sales, fortunately, they might have the product, but unfortunately, they might not have the exact size, and they will just assume that the available size can be manageable; all because of sales...
What I'm I trying to say in essence? It's not that online shopping is wrong or bad, because some people might not have the time to get to the supermarket or mall to get their desired product, so they have to order from online which is cool a well; but at the same time, it might have to cost you somethings like time and so on...
Now let's look at the offline or physical marketing. The first fact is that they both have their disadvantages, we know that right?
Imagine we had to go to the market on a particular day, and then on the road, probably the intense or temptation of the sun increases, and we have to walk under the sun just to get what you want.
Or just imagine, instead of sun, it should now be rain, you will just regret ever going for the market, I'm sure some of us can relate to what I am talking about...
At the same time, let's look at it at the positive side; you will have the opportunity to different supermarkets for shopping, i.e, when you get to one supermarket and they don't have the particular products you are looking for, you could easily leave for another close one...
The major advantage of this offline or physical marketing is that you get to see your desired choice, less scam, and so on...
So which do I prefer? I as much as i will love to rest at at my comfort zone and get whatever I want, I would also love to see what exactly I am purchasing, in order to prevent scamming or losses, yeah I do prefer the offline or physical marketing to the online offline...
