In times of geopolitical uncertainty, stagnating productivity and growing complexity, artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming a decisive lever for business success. However, many companies are still in ‘pilot mode’ – the potential of AI often remains untapped.

In our new dossier „FOSTEC AI Advisory – Business Optimisation with AI”, we show how companies can close the gap between AI vision and implementation. The focus is on a tried-and-tested approach that ranges from the identification of specific use cases and initial MVPs through to scalable transformation – with the aim of creating operational excellence and tapping into new growth opportunities.

Based on the survey results companies expect stable sales on Amazon.

The share of Amazon sales in relation to total sales is between 0-25% for 74% of respondents. According to the survey, the most important alternative E-Commerce channels for companies are large marketplaces, online shopping on social media and direct-to-consumer (D2C) stores. Furthermore, companies expect similar profitability from Amazon sales as from other comparable marketplaces. For the majority of respondents, however, cost-related factors are the key to future profitability.

The choice of business model on Amazon among respondents is clear. 63% of participants use the seller (1P) business model. The split between 1P and 3P sales is even more telling, with 76% of sales using the 1P business model.

In both the B2C and B2B segments for consumer goods, digital sales channels for end users and business customers have steadily established themselves in recent years and are becoming increasingly popular.
Sales for complex B2B products have so far surprisingly stubbornly resisted this change; the classic sales structure with office and field sales still prevails.

In this context in particular, systematic digitization of processes and procedures offers extensive potential for efficiency, transparency and cost optimization, as well as the opportunity to win over the increasingly digitally oriented leads as customers. E-commerce is now more than just a web store, it is a “way of thinking & doing”.

Our dossier gives you an insight into the current situation of the B2B sales landscape in Germany as well as the latest approaches for the systematic “digital first” transformation of your sales organization.
