Hello
Overhead is the cost of doing business whether or not a sale is made. Commercial property, whether rented, leased or bought, adds considerable overhead to a brick and mortar business. All else being equal, the cost of property, employees, insurance, and taxes are far greater for brick and mortars than for Internet-based businesses.

When e-commerce was new, however, some consumers were wary of doing business with companies that did not have a commercial address. This brings us to one of the main advantages of a brick and mortar business: customer security.
Thanks
