Two implementations of customer-to-customer markets are auctions and classifieds. Customer-to-customer marketing has soared in popularity with the arrival of the internet, as companies such as eBay, Craigslist and other sites have fostered greater interaction between customers.

DEFINITION OF 'BUSINESS TO BUSINESS - B TO B'A type of commerce transaction that exists between businesses, such as those involving a manufacturer and wholesaler, or a wholesaler and a retailer. Business to business refers to business that is conducted between companies, rather than between a company and individual consumers. This is in contrast to business to consumer (B2C) and business to government (B2G). A typical supply chain involves multiple business to business transactions, as companies purchase components and other raw materials for use in its manufacturing processes. The finished product can then be sold to individuals via business to consumer transactions.

DEFINITION OF 'BUSINESS TO CONSUMER - B TO C'Business or transactions conducted directly between a company and consumers who are the end-users of its products or services. Business to consumer as a business model differs significantly from the business to business model, which refers to commerce between two or more businesses.

DEFINITION OF 'CUSTOMER TO CUSTOMER (C2C)'A business model that facilitates an environment where customers can trade with each other. Two implementations of customer-to-customer markets are auctions and classifieds. Customer-to-customer marketing has soared in popularity with the arrival of the internet, as companies such as eBay, Craigslist and other sites have fostered greater interaction between customers. Customer-to-customer sites make their money from fees charged to sellers for listing items for sale, adding on promotional features and completing transactions. Also known as consumer to consumer, or C2C.

DEFINITION OF CONSUMER-TO-BUSINESS (C2B)Consumer-to-business (C2B) is a business model where an end user or consumer makes a product or service that an organization uses to complete a business process or gain competitive advantage. The C2B methodology completely transposes the traditional business-to-consumer (B2C) model, where a business produces services and products for consumer consumption.
