ASSIGNMENT WEEK 7 :
Nike Inc. Company is a multi-international company that deals in manufacturing shoes, apparel, and sportswear.B2B entails business transactions between the businesses. The transaction is conducted between companies rather than between a business and a customer. The challenges of B2B sales for the products include the commoditization of products (Selman, 2017). This entails the products of the company being deemed almost similar to those of other companies. With more companies dealing with shoes and apparel and the development of companies, Nike faces a challenge in commoditization products. The commoditization of products allows customers to make purchasing decisions based on commodities’ prices, hence a major challenge.
The company can add expertise in their products and also create another marketplace for their products. Growing customer expectations leads to competition and growing customer demands and expectations, and it is a challenge to keep up with the ever-changing demands of the customer.
