10 3/1/0210 What Went Wrong 3 Junk mail and spam –e-mail containing unsolicited ads to consumers and other business prospects Companies did not develop good business models for Web Some businesses based entirely on Web sales have vanished

11 3/1/0211 What Went Wrong 4 No viable model has yet been developed for distance learning

12 3/1/0212 What Does the Future Hold? Organizations learn how to integrate Internet/Web with everything else... including educational organizations incorporating distance learning Customers expect organization to have Web access for information and transactions

13 3/1/0213 What Does the Future Hold 2 Customers will have access to Web wherever they are Connectivity speeds will continue to increase Reliability will get better –greatly decreasing lost and faulty orders, disconnection from Website

14 3/1/0214 What Does the Future Hold 3 Organizations gather data about prospects and customers in unprecedented amounts –through site registration, questionnaires, and as part of taking orders

15 3/1/0215 What Does the Future Hold 4 Online stores can tell who comes to their Website –What products they look at –How long they stay –Which promotions they respond to –What they buy –How many leave without making a purchase

16 3/1/0216 What Does the Future Hold 5 Better use of ads –“Neilsen" ratings for Websites –Targeted ads –Visit-specific ads Electronic payment systems –credit card, bank funds transfer, ecash

18 3/1/0218 What Does the Future Hold 7 Lower transaction costs –If an e-commerce site is implemented well, the Web can significantly lower both order-taking costs up front and customer service costs after the sale Larger purchases per transaction –Customer can be presented "what other people who ordered this product/service also purchased”

19 3/1/0219 What Does the Future Hold 8 Larger catalogs –A company can present a catalog on the web that would never fit in an ordinary mailbox (for example, Amazon's 3,000,000 books)

20 3/1/0220 What Does the Future Hold 9 Integration into the business cycle –A Website that is well-integrated into the business cycle can offer customers more information than previously available. –For example: manufacturing, shipping, tracking like Dell and Fedex do now

21 3/1/0221 What Does the Future Hold 10 Improved customer interactions –With automated tools it is possible to interact with a customer in richer ways at virtually no cost. –For example: the customer might get an e-mail when the order is confirmed, when the order is shipped, and after the order arrives
