    Tyrone, I am in the initial stages of developing an e-commerce website. I am interested in learning about the economics of e-commerce…profitability projections, size of market for my products, relationship of marketing/advertising budget to net operating income (rules of thumb) and similiar type information. Can you recommend a source for this information?

    Thank you.

    • Hi Steve,

      Thanks for your comment. You’ve asked a really interesting question and it’s quite specific. I would need to know if you are asking for tools to get these statistics or if you need a detailed description of how to for these? Let me know and I’ll try my best to get the resources for you.

      Thanks
