11 New Ecommerce Books for Summer 2022

Here’s a batch of new ecommerce books for summer. There are titles on sales conversions, brand development, social media marketing, gaming, audience attentiveness, and selling a business.

I compiled this list using Amazon. From Amazon’s “Books” category, I selected “Business & Money.” From there, I chose the “Processes & Infrastructure” sub-category and selected “E-commerce.” Then I handpicked titles from that group based on customer ratings and relation to ecommerce. I also picked a few titles from the “Business Development & Entrepreneurship” sub-category.
