There are some major differences.
1) Increased pool of unskilled labor-- manufacturing industry tanked, increased immigration.
2) Proliferation of internet connected, smartphones.
3) Avoiding obvious mistakes: no free deliveries for a bottle of coke, like in webvan days.
4) Doing direct store to consumer deliveries, avoiding warehouses, getting 20-25% cut from retailers (who see this as savings in marketing cost and reduced in-store staff cost)
- sarah2079 12y agoGoogle shopping express will happily deliver you a $1.67 bottle of coke for free if you are covered by their free trial. This is not their ultimate business plan (outside the trial is $5 per store for 10 items max), but get in on the trial if you can! I have been getting free delivery from them for over a year now.
