    Why is there very little pressure when buying online?

    • Computers are calming

    • Because there is no sales representative pressuring you into a purchase

    • You dont need to leave your home to shop

    Correct Answer
    A. Because there is no sales representative pressuring you into a purchase
    Explanation
    When buying online, there is very little pressure because there is no sales representative pressuring you into a purchase. Unlike in physical stores, where salespeople often use various tactics to convince customers to buy, online shopping allows individuals to browse and make decisions at their own pace without any external influence. This absence of pressure creates a more relaxed and comfortable shopping experience, making it one of the reasons why online shopping has gained popularity. Additionally, online shopping offers the convenience of shopping from home, avoiding crowded stores and noisy environments.

    Correct Answer
    A. Withdraw money directly from your bank account
    Explanation
    Debit cards allow users to withdraw money directly from their bank account. Unlike credit cards, which involve borrowing money from the bank, debit cards provide immediate access to funds that are already available in the account. They can also be used for transferring funds from one bank account to another. Additionally, debit cards can be used as orders for the financial institute to pay someone a designated amount of money, as the funds are deducted directly from the user's account.

    Correct Answer
    A. Because stores do not have to pay for sales representatives to sell items to you
    Explanation
    Online stores do not have to pay for sales representatives to sell items to customers, which reduces their overhead costs. This cost-saving advantage allows online stores to offer lower prices compared to physical stores. Additionally, online stores often have a wider range of products available, allowing customers to compare prices and find the best deals. The absence of travel costs, such as transportation and parking fees, also contributes to the overall cheaper price of buying online.

    Correct Answer
    A. Precisely explain the products functions, uses and features
    Explanation

This means that the product description should provide clear and specific information about what the product does, how it can be used, and what features it offers. It should not include any false claims or qualities that the product does not actually possess. The description should be accurate and informative, helping potential customers understand what the product is capable of and how it can benefit them.
