Online sales are booming at the moment, accounting for 31% of total retail sales in June 2020 according to the Office of National Statistics. So as physical sales in the current climate continue to present a challenge for some businesses, the potential for selling via platforms such as Amazon and eBay is now truly being realised.
If you’re a business that needs to quickly get up to speed with online selling you may be interested in a FREE selling programme currently on offer by Sheffield-based Marketing Consultancy, Shelton Associates.
