In an increasingly digital world, eCommerce sales are projected to reach $5 trillion by 2023. The truth is it can help organizations of all industries and sizes. Among many other things, it allows managing personalized content and an unlimited number of products while promoting a tailored client experience. With eCommerce, it is easy to position your business worldwide, reaching clients outside predetermined geographic limits and creating a network of international clients.
