What are the major differences between traditional business and e-business?
Traditional business operates primarily through physical locations and face-to-face interactions, while e-business is conducted entirely online. E-business reduces operational costs by eliminating expenses like rent for physical stores. Unlike traditional businesses limited to local customers, e-business enables global reach. However, e-business lacks personal interaction, which traditional setups can provide. Additionally, e-business relies heavily on technology and internet connectivity, while traditional businesses can function without digital infrastructure. Each model has its own set of advantages and challenges, depending on customer preferences and business goals.
