Salute Ebay

The recent "Taobao city" incident in Taobao has attracted widespread attention from the central ministries and commissions and the investment banks outside Wall Street. No matter how they stand, there is no exception to a basic fact: Taobao is big enough, Too Big to ignore! On the contrary, Taobao has been learning the object of eBay, though it is also very large, but it is increasingly being ignore by media and investors.

EBay used to look at Taobao in the rearview mirror. Now, it seems that Taobao can't see eBay in the rearview mirror.

At this juncture, look back at the way and the way eBay is walking. There is no scenery or inspiration.

Slow advantage

In October 19th, eBay released the third quarter.

The reason for this is a gentle pition because eBay was originally a large flea market, with C2C as its main business mode, and many of which were secondhand businesses. Until many years later, it did not expand like B2C in the Amazon, but did not expand as much as Taobao, from C2C to B2C until B2B2C.

Because Amazon's growth is too fast, eBay's original market.

This slow and gentle loss has made it lose the first place in the market, but it is also safe and reliable, so far it can still guarantee a more robust growth.

Therefore, whether PayPal or MarketPlace, has gone through a long period of polishing, user experience is excellent, integrity certification and other problems are less, this is slow advantage.

In contrast, most e-commerce businesses in China are rapidly expanding from one area to another, even extending from one mode to another. For example, C2C is still not considered enough, and soon introduced B2B2C, B2C, group buying, and so on.

In this case, not only

What we need to know is that in China, even the traditional logistics team and marketing team do not have enough talent. In the large number of e-commerce websites that are launched by all kinds of e-commerce websites, how many of them are really worthy of the name in the high-end business teams of the so-called electricity suppliers who run fast and do not wash mud, and the so-called "high-end" teams that run jobs?

For example, ignoring the protection of consumers and lowering the standard of honesty, we should first make people earn money, raise pigs first and kill pigs.

Everywhere is the destruction of rules.

When everyone sees that e-commerce must be fast, fast and slow, sometimes it is not possible to ignore the benefits of slow expansion.

Without exception, all of them are deeply branded on China's "anxious country". Behind the urgent need is whether they want to dominate the world, or do they have to support their families?

Fast scale

Behind all these "anxious" words, the most neglected consumer is the same. In the case of Taobao incident, the interests of consumers are considered least.

Not only Taobao gate, those large number of group buying websites, those who rush to walk, those who want to manipulate the ratings of the website, and their sellers, those who are desperately trying to dig up their opponents, and have no definite direction for development after the chase, those who try their best to show, flicker, and pretend fox trot dance.

In the Vanity Fair of electronic commerce, there is a lot of colorful chicken feathers everywhere.

But what about consumers? I am a fish, but you are not equal to each other, or you have different skills.

Therefore, the Chinese people who have enough capital to drive, have enough entrepreneurial spirit and have enough desire to create wealth, e-commerce in China is developing faster or even leapfrogging.

However, what really worries people is that behind these fast is a fast, unprincipled, scale-free and boundless. The winner is king alienated into money supremacy, while the customer supremacy is dwarfed as a customer lamb. After the law and contract become the plaything of businessmen, what kind of eco business ecosystem can be built on the quicksand of honesty?

When we see the eBay that has tended to "lag behind" and the figure of the once giant, we should show more respect because it always respects the basic business rules, respects the foundation of honesty and credit, respects the opponents, especially respects the customers.

For example, PayPal's perfect API services, such as the latest X.commerce, are designed to build a common ecosystem. The latter can be regarded as a SOA cloud service infrastructure platform.

It's hard to imagine entrepreneurs who run blindly and impetuosity.

The author believes that in all the KPI indicators of the electricity supplier enterprises tend to be faster and bigger, add several slow indicators, add more refined indicators, or which enterprises will feel more durable and more vitality.

Anomie business is like a derailment train. Is it safe even if it is high-speed rail?
