This topic reminds me of how the Amazon offers features that solidify its identity as a distribution giant. When purchasing vitamins through Amazon, I noticed an option to "subscribe and save" if I committed to monthly purchases of the product I had chosen. What benefits do subscription services provide for organizations using ecommerce? How does this feature help sellers anticipate the inventory needed in the future?
