DECA Hospitality and Tourism Glossary Practice Test

The idea being tested is how goods and services are sold over the internet to end customers. The term e-tail, short for electronic retail, describes the online retailing channel where shoppers browse, select, pay for, and receive products or services through websites, apps, or online marketplaces. E-tail emphasizes consumer-facing retail transactions in cyberspace, marking the online version of traditional retail. While e-commerce covers all online buying and selling, including wholesale and business-to-business activity, e-tail specifically targets individual retail transactions online. The other terms refer to different concepts: an entrepreneur is someone who starts a business, entry-level indicates the initial rung in a job ladder, and the experimental method is a research approach used to test hypotheses.
