UK Ecommerce opportunities...

According to research carried out by Epson Business Council (internet retailing), only 59% of small UK businesses (fewer than 10 employees) see ecommerce as a business opportunity, this is a huge difference to 72% of European businesses of the same size. In Italy 94% of small businesses now sell their products online through an e-commerce website or another ecommerce platform such as eBay or Amazon since the downfall of the economy. When you look at eBay’s millionaires club which is growing day by day, why wouldn’t a small business turn to ecommerce?
