Amazon launches the “All Business Center”

Amazon sent out a press release a few hours ago announcing a new niche category on the online super-mall – the All Business Center – for small and medium sized businesses.

This latest offering from Amazon is a sort of niche social-network and retail store where small business owners can use the discussion forums to chat about their businesses and rest of the “business center” to buy stuff ranging from amazon webservices to office supplies and amazon fulfillment services to books and software.

While research indicates that small and medium businesses are experiencing a higher success rate in the early years, entrepreneurs still struggle with many day-to-day challenges such as poor inventory management, unexpected growth and low sales. The Amazon All Business Center provides customers with a single, comprehensive resource aimed at helping small and medium business owners address these types of issues and increase the odds of success.

All in all, a nice web 1.4.5 place to shop for business needs, it could be marketed a whole lot better if amazon added more social-networking elements to the mix other than just a plain old discussion forum.
