Question

Marketplaces bring traffic and take margin and ownership of the customer; your own store builds the asset. The sensible regional sequence usually runs both: marketplace for volume discovery, own store for the relationship.
In this region: In this region the store lives or dies on COD behaviour, UPI reliability and honest shipping - buyers here are pragmatic, and the store must be too. ecommerce development and the calculator connect this to the rest of the work.
