What is the Size of the U.S. e-Commerce Market?
Accurate data is hard to find Three measures

This is NOT the entire e-commerce market– EDI market is even higher than Web market

Traditional Web
![Page 22: LEADING YOUR COMPANY TO THE WEB](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051316/568159f0550346895dc739f9/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Should My Company Enter Web-Space?
Do we have $100,000 to $200,000 to invest in launching a Web site? (And are we willing to invest in maintaining it?)
Are our competitors involved in the Web? Do our customers demand Web services? Do we have customer service opportunities that could
be improved via the Web? Is a significant portion of our customer base under the
age of 30? Do we want to be in business 2-5 years in the future?
![Page 23: LEADING YOUR COMPANY TO THE WEB](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051316/568159f0550346895dc739f9/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Three Stages of Web Involvement
Stage 1: “Brochure”– One-way information broadcast– Lowest cost, easiest to maintain– A holder for your place in e-commerce
Stage 2: “Basic Transactions”– Offer basic transactions: orders, payment– Requires significant maintenance, real-time
processing– May compete with existing business avenues
![Page 24: LEADING YOUR COMPANY TO THE WEB](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051316/568159f0550346895dc739f9/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Three Stages of Web Involvement
Stage 3: “Complete Business Partnership”– Multiple transactions with customers– Integrated functionality– Builds customer loyalty, long-term
relationships– Involves major funding commitments
![Page 25: LEADING YOUR COMPANY TO THE WEB](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051316/568159f0550346895dc739f9/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Suggestions on Entering Web Space
Keep your focus on your customer--don’t get lost in the technology
Use EC to improve processes and information flow--don’t pave over old cow paths
Develop customer loyalty by providing multiple connections that add value
Partner when necessary to widen your ability to provide services

Suggestion: Analyze the Timelines You Create for Your Customers
What processes do they go through to find us? How do we tell them about our products? How do they order from us? How do they contact us about customer service
problems? How do they pay us? What other information would they like to have
about status, payments, availability, etc., and how do they get it?
