Here’s a batch of new ecommerce books for your fall reading. There are titles on scaling a brand, managing a team, B2B marketing, email marketing, cryptocurrencies, AI, big data, and the journey of a startup.
I compiled this list using Amazon. From the “Books” category, I selected “Business & Money.” From there I chose the “Processes & Infrastructure” sub-category and selected “E-commerce.” Then I handpicked titles from that group based on customer ratings and relation to ecommerce. I also selected a few titles from the “Business Development & Entrepreneurship” sub-category.
