In a Business to Business (B2B) model, companies sell products or services to other companies rather than individual consumers. This often involves large quantities of goods being sold at lower prices, as businesses typically purchase in bulk. B2B transactions are focused on meeting the needs of other businesses and establishing long-term partnerships for mutual benefit.Rate this question:

Online job searching is not suitable for e-commerce because it involves a different process and purpose. E-commerce is primarily focused on the sale and purchase of products and services, while job searching is about finding employment opportunities. Online job searching requires platforms specifically designed for job seekers and employers to connect, whereas e-commerce platforms are geared towards facilitating transactions between buyers and sellers. Therefore, online job searching does not fall under the scope of e-commerce activities.Rate this question:
