The moment we think of Online shopping, the image that comes to mind is of a hassled night bird, with a coffee in hand, checking out merchandise in the dead of the night when everybody else is safely asleep.

Thankfully, the notions are changing fast and how! Today online shopping is not synonymous with harried last minute shopping for those who have no time. It is more in sync with detailed research and hefty Cashback revolution that is hitting the nation.

Today, consumers are not wary of ordering even luxury and high-priced items alike electronics or jewellery online. In fact, highly personalised merchandise like clothes are selling like hot cakes in their online stores!! Only in this case, it should rather be virtual hot cakes!

Online shopping revolution has changed the way a whole generation approached the concept of shopping. No longer is that insatiable urge to touch before you buy. If you are getting hefty Cashbacks and good discounts online, why not?

The cost of operating from high street has left no choice left for many retailers than to concentrate on their online stores. It saves upto 80% on operational costs!! On the other hand, even established brands want to capitalise on the ever-increasing tribe of consumers who either shop exclusively online or at least do their research and seek information about the product through internet.

Further revolutions in technology that has made internet accessible in cars, palm etc, have made information accessible on-the-go. They have changed the way consumers perceive brands. Viral marketing and word-of-mouth publicity have become the buzzwords.

No need to say that the future will be even more complex and unimaginable. The experience of shopping is set to become highly personalised and user-dictated. Thanks to such trends in online shopping, small is going to be big soon, with virtually all big brands making profits through standardisation and economies of scale being wiped out.

Adjust yourself to this tech-friendly world. Someday, walking your dog in the park is going to turn virtual too.
