Brick and mortar refer to an organization owning a physical presence for its operations where customers can walk in. However, the retail landscape has been in continuous flux for the past twenty years. That is due to threats from large chain stores and the rise of eCommerce sites forcing retailers to adapt to new innovations to attract more customers (Qi, Chan, Hu, & Li, 2020). Transitioning to online selling is one way of navigating these changes. Branding online for brick and mortar is cost-effective because, unlike the traditional way of opening more stores, launching an online store is more budget-friendly. That will cut employee salaries, renovation costs, and rent as digital commerce requires minimal overhead costs. Doing business online will only need one person to run the website while customers can collect their products from the store.
