This paper delves into the transformative impact of technology on human activities, particularly the digitisation of major and basic tasks. The business landscape has not been immune to this revolution, with traditional methods giving way to digitalisation, commonly referred to as online or electronic business (e-business). Defined as any business activity conducted over the internet, e-business offers numerous benefits, such as global reach and geographical flexibility. However, it is not without its drawbacks, with online fraud undermining customer trust and infrastructure costs posing challenges. In the Upper East Region (UER) of Ghana, some entities have transitioned their operations entirely online, while others employ a click-and-mortar approach, operating both online and offline. This study employs a quantitative survey design, using an online questionnaire to investigate and understand the challenges and opportunities faced by online businesses in the UER. The research, based on a sample of fifty-two (52) businesses, identifies a lack of digital skills and high data costs as the primary challenges. Significantly, the study reveals untapped potential in the agricultural sector for online business in the UER. The findings not only outline these challenges and opportunities but also propose strategies to address the former and sustain the latter, offering valuable insights for businesses navigating the evolving digital landscape in the UER.

In the field of social media marketing, universities seek to gain a better comprehension of how students use social media. Due to its dynamic nature, there are gaps in the current research on how students behave on these platforms to make matriculation decisions. This study seeks to provide more information about the online habits of both prospective and current university students, specifically those of Corvinus University of Budapest. The study investigates how students use social media as a source of information when making decisions about attending Corvinus University of Budapest (CUB) as well as how social media can improve the student experience at the university. In the literature review, the rise of social media, its application in higher education, and its function as a channel for marketing and communication are all examined. The research design uses a quantitative approach, and it includes a survey of CUB students to learn about their use of social media and opinions of the school as well as an analysis of website analytics to identify the social media platforms that bring in the most visitors to the university website. The study responds to three research questions about the influence of social media usage on the prospective students' decisions, the efficiency of social media in improving the student experience, and the most influential social media platform. The results indicate that while CUB's social media pages have minor bearing on students' decisions to attend the university, a sizable portion of the students think that social media initiatives enhance their time as students there. Despite Instagram being the platform that received the most visits and followers, Facebook was found to have the greatest impact on the university's lead generation. The demographics of CUB students could be further investigated in future studies, along with how they might impact their online behavior and decision-making. Future researches could also concentrate on social media analytics, which would help the institute create successful social media and student recruitment strategies.

Social media platforms have transformed the way business organizations manage marketing. These platforms allow consumers to interact, feedback, and ask questions in real-time. The confidence in social media's role in strengthening the brand image and improving market position is highly increasing. This study aims to analyze the role social media plays in developing brand image and market position. Specifically, this study delves into the factors for choosing products promoted in social media and how customers associate brand image and market position with those choices. Operationally, brand image is defined in this study as the observation, reflection, and sentiments associated with the brand. Market position is defined as the consumer’s perception, which includes its image or identity compared to other brands. This study employed a mixed approach and was qualified as descriptive research. To test the hypothesis that social media impacts brand image and market position, seven factors were rated by the respondents through an online survey. The semi-structured questionnaire contains both open and closed-ended questions. The respondents were identified through the convenience sampling technique. Their responses were analyzed to determine the mean, standard deviation, and frequency distribution. The results showed that Instagram, Marketing Apps, and Snapchat were the most popular social media platforms among the respondents. Factors like perceived value, satisfaction, and brand personality obtained a higher mean. The majority signified themselves as ‘very dependent on social media in seeking products for online shopping.’ Similarly, a majority also perceived that social media influences brand image and market position. These results imply the significant role social media have on the consumers’ overall perception of the product, which could influence their brand selection. Based on these findings, companies should place higher consideration on social media’s importance for product development

This study explored the use of social media as an approach to understand its effectiveness in preaching the Christian gospel by church leaders during the pandemic lockdown implemented in many countries across the world. In the technologically driven world of today, social networking sites have turned out to be an avenue where people extend their interactions by sharing their personal experiences and opinions to a wider audience. Social media (SM) is defined as “the various electronic tools, technologies, and applications that facilitate interactive communication and content exchange, allowing the user to move back and forth easily between the roles of the audience and content producers” (Hysenlika, 2012: 3). The term social media is fast becoming such an integral part of everyday life, as well as business operations, that its use has now become an everyday term for launching products, developing consumer loyalty and sharing news. It is recommended that churches that wish to stay connected and evangelize need to promote the use of and purchase relevant equipment. To be prepared, this requires identifying or recruiting talents and also the offering of rigorous training on being savvy on the ins and outs of technology use. The purpose of adopting an innovation needs to be clarified, well defined and aligned with the vision and mission of the organisation as well as its set goals. Sustenance for the future will require support for the team as they work to meet, plan, strategize, and brainstorm on trends to promote the gospel.

Before pandemic the world economy had a pre-crisis situation which was characterized by unprecedented imbalances in the global financial and economic system, the lack of growth in world GDP, which posed a real threat to the world economic order. Almost all global analysts predicted a global economic crisis at the end of 2019. For the first time since time immemorial, bank interest rates in all countries have dropped to unprecedented low levels. Often interest rates were 0% or even negative. The EU’s financial system has been so disfigured by the VAT tax that fraud with this tax has reached a scale far exceeding hundreds of billions EUR and in fact got out of control of the authorities.
