For this project find a similar online retailer and physical retailer, observing the similarities and differences. Determine what type of customer is attracted to the physical store versus the online store. Write at least at a 1000-word document that presents your findings. An example of physical and online retailers would be Walgreens and http://www.drugstore.com/ (please do not use this example for this project).
