30. There is Hope After the Trough of Disillusion Source: Adapted from Raskino and Andren of Gartner Research (2001) Life Cycle of E-Business

31. Tough Times The first generation of e-business was like a gold rush = creation of a Web presence and experimentation. Results: Huge sales and market share, BUT little was brought to the bottom line and profit was negative, Since January 2000, however, over 500 Internet firms have shut down in the U.S. alone. E.g: CDNow, Lycos, DoubleClick, E*Trade, and Amazon.comCDNowLycosDoubleClickE*TradeAmazon.com The “trough of disillusion” is based 30% on the technology recession and 70% on disappointment with e-business results.

32. Tough Times Marketers return to their traditional roots and rely on well- grounded strategy and sound marketing practices. During the dot-com shakeout from 2000-2002, there was much industry consolidation: Some firms, such as Levi Strauss, stopped selling online = not efficient + created channel conflict. Other firms merged,  E.g. e-business firm took over a traditional firm = AOL purchased Time-Warner.

34. What will the future be? Gartner Group predicts that a true e-business model will emerge, and by 2008 the “e” will be dropped, making electronic business just part of the way things are done. Some say that “E-business has become just business. E-commerce has become just commerce. The new economy has become just the economy (Aronica and Fingar 2001). ” Others say that this is far from the truth—for them, e-business will always have its own models, concepts, and practices. Charles Schwab has already gone through the entire cycle allowing e.Schwab.com to cannibalize the larger brick-and-mortar securities firm in 1998. e.Schwab.com
