Amazon greed to succed

Amazon has many attributes we all enjoy. The simplicity of clicking and receiving the boxes only a few days after order. Prime members pay for 12 months of free shipping by an up front payment of $99.00 a year. Nothing is really free, that $99.00 covers most shipping costs for 6 months or more in some cases.

With trillions of dollars available to shrewd businesses. Amazon was on track to grant itself profits through the roof. A recent move may have dampened this path.

Pop-up ads. You know them, some of you shoppers even use them on your sites. Seizing profits through shared advertising.

These very annoying pop up ads have caused many shoppers to buy directly from the stores this season. Amazon may not have foreseen the losses. Amazon might  still record sales doubling though out this holiday season. Even with the endless stream of ads jumping into the faces of customers.

The timing of these pop up ads, was to say the least, tasteless. These pop up ads feel a little barbaric when shopping intensifies. With millions on the line, customers must now constantly click at these very annoying ads. Will you stay, or shop directly at stores who understand we hate these tiny pop up ads? Perhaps for many the answer will be get in the car or bus and go shopping locally. Has Amazon's greed to succeed over ridden common sense in business sales?
