The
Student Exchange is based on a P2P community e-business model incorporating several revenue streams and services. The Student Exchange will attract students to the web site by offering lower prices on books, 24 hour access
to sales and same day delivery. Also, students can post their books for sale
on the site by logging onto the site.
The Student Exchange will
use eye-catching posters displayed throughout both campuses, advertisements throughout the community and in both institutions’
newspaper, and both schools’ web site.
Payments for books will
be handled using PayPal. This will ensure payments will be made and security
is managed. This will also assist and prevent fraud and theft.
The primary mission of The Student Exchange is to provide
quality used-books at reasonable prices. As post secondary education expenses
continue to increase, the scope of the market will continue to increase as well. The
Student Exchange should prove to be a lucrative venture.
