Think about examples such as shopping Amazon online or going to a brick and mortar Target store. It must be written in 3rd person (he, she, it, etc.) Research to find a reliable source for each. The supporting details should be chosen to make clear to the reader the good and bad points of each, using sources and documentation according to APA style. The essay should have an introduction that effectively catches the reader’s attention, identifies the two types of commerce and uses the one side at a time strategy OR point by point. The main body of the essay may be organized one side at a time or point by point, but either way the main body should describe specific details so the reader clearly understands how the two topics are alike and different. The conclusion should review the major points and may suggest that one type of commerce may be better most times or depending on the situation.
