Editor's Notes

  1. ASK IF WE SHOULD PUT THIRD PARTY SELLERS IN AUCTION AND Zshop MODEL AND MARKETPLACES AS PARTNERS AS WELL AS CUSTOMER Discuss about Bait & Hook model for Kindle/eBooks
  2. managing both working capital and capital expenditures investments longer-term : hire additional software engineers, computer scientists, and me increasing operating income high inventory turnover: $480 million at year end on a sales base of nearly $7 billion
  3. Consider Amazons corporate evolution: as soon as it established itself as a leading online book seller it began leveraging the platform and infrastructure it built to move into new categories, and in a matter of years became a full-fledged online department store and the webs premiere retailer. Amazon has also leveraged its online real estate and customer base, establishing itself as a broker of transactions and leaser of web space to other retailers. These profitable initiatives have generated synergies that fortify Amazons core business selling other merchants books, for example, vastly expands Amazons catalog, making the site ever more of a one-stop shop while contributing to the overall growth of the business.
