- Abstract
E-commerce has become an integral part of people’s lives and its ease and breadth have given great convenience. Price changes and platform activity are always points of concern in people’s online purchases. This paper takes the JD.com platform as the research object to explore the impact of the Butterfly Festival on JD.com sales and delivery speed. Data from the database provided by JD.com are used for the analysis. Two time periods during and after the Butterfly Festival were selected, the parameters were estimated by linear regression based on the DID model, and the results obtained were representative and convincing because of the large data sample. By comparing the data during and after the Butterfly Festival, it was found that there was a decrease in the average sales per item and no significant impact on the delivery speed. For these phenomena, reasonable explanations and future predictions were made based on the characteristics of the JD.com platform and the industry. In conclusion, the Butterfly Festival must have been a success and made a significant contribution to JD.com’s first-quarter sales in 2018, while it can be seen that JD.com is a mature platform in terms of logistics management. In the future, JD.com can launch strategies for different customer populations on a large scale to make JD.com a larger and more mature integrated e-commerce platform.
