services makes it easy for Amazon to affect the purchasing decision of its
buyers.

cery, clothing and house appliances thus it does not have any experience i
n delivering services in fresh or instant food.

viding home delivery of the food services. Thus, Amazon will receive huge c
ompetition from other service providers.

les will increase rapidly. Further it will be able to dominate in another servic
e sector which is not served presently. It will also increase the brand value an
d market share of the organisation.

mong users or employees of organisation can have adverse impact
on continuity of the services.
• Environmental: For promoting the service's organisation must also
focus on sustainability.
• Legal: The legal factors such as employment law, consumer laws o
r legislations regarding the quality of services must also be taken int
o account so that legal penalties can be avoided.

uy the products. Amazon can use segmentation on the basis of psychogr
aphic.
