In China, there is a saying "Customer is our God", so suppliers always offer the best service as well as quality products. Yep, it is absolutely right because nobody will accept bad service and bad products. This is good to buyers.
However, I will say, the most important is Business Information. Who get the earliest business information, who will win. If selles master the BI (business information), they will be buyers' God. What's the best BI? I think it should be the thirsty demand of consumers, it should be the products that can offer consumers better life, it should be the service that facilitate consumers and their life, it should be the innovation of our world or the products, etc. There is an example as Alibaba. Alibaba make business men do busness earlier. It is the innovation for business. For instance again, MP3 & MP4 player changes the life of people and most of people are willing to buy one though it is expensive.
So, when you get the best Business Information, you will say "Oh, I am God".
Of course, all business men should be honest, but not all of them will be lucky partly because they do not get BI for their business faster than others.
You can study all business activities and you will find that it is BI that leads their business behaviors. General speaking, to find buyers, to find the cheapest suppliers, to investigate the markets, etc. is just to get information. Who get it earlier, who will win.

Replying to [Peter Chan]:
Hi,you topic titile is totally wrong , may be you can use the word
God in lowercase "god", it is totally different concept.There are many gods in this world , but God only have one .
However, innovation exists everywhere. From food, apparel to high-tech, there is innovation everyday, but only the one who devotes himself to it can have the good chance.
In one word, no pains, no gains.
