Building your E-empire: E-commerce from the Ground Up

Speakers: 

Times are changing. Many folks have smartphones in hand and 64% of them are using their mobile devices to shop online.* 72% of tablet owners make purchases from their devices weekly as well**.

By the end of 2014, Forrester Research estimates there will be $248.7 billion in online sales. That's in the US alone. Over five years, they're forecasting a 10% annual compound growth. Europe is even bigger, with an 11% annual compound growth rate (that's 191 billion Euros by 2017, if you're counting).

E-commerce is a big deal. If you're not paying attention, you should be!
