Cyber Monday is the New Black Friday

Crowds, lines, traffic, and of course, the dreaded dressing room usually comprise a typical holiday shopping trip. In my view, if the mall can be avoided, it’s a good thing. Based on online shopping trends, I’m not the only one.

What with the ease of shopping from the comfort of your couch, filling your virtual shopping cart in your pajamas is superior to going to the store. You make a few clicks, and you wait for your packages to arrive. Naturally, despite all of the effort expended on brick-and-mortar locations, digital channels have been steadily expanding.

Are your digital channels ready to handle the next wave of online shoppers? Here are five stories that showcase why eCommerce is going to dominate the retail space in 2016:
