In becoming an e-business, consider the stages your business will progress through:
Computers networked on a scalable, available, dependable environment.
Preparing to market over the Internet by developing an engaging Web site with a public appearance that captures the essence of your business while communicating your business mission.
Planning and deploying e-commerce applications that can grow with your business and allow customers instant access to your products and services while enhancing the cash flow to your business.
Transforming core business processes to run on your Intranet.
Leveraging knowledge and information you've gained through e-business systems.
Where to begin?
E-Business should begin with your customers.
Customer Relationship Management is the catch phrase attached to nurturing your businesses' most valuable external resource, your customers. Customers are the basis of any business; you can't stream revenue unless you develop a loyal customer base. Start by improving every one of your current systems for customer interactions. Review how your internal business processes impact your customers from answering your phone to bill collection. E- business is about leveraging the Internet to integrate and transform these processes into a single, efficient system.
Building customer loyalty through better customer service
When you become an e-business you transform your relationship with your customers. Customer relationship management is the organizing principle that keeps all of your business processes focused on the customer.
Organization
Organize your business team to recognize and inform your customer of changes in your business and progress in delivering their order. Your customer should become a part of your business process. Use auto generated e-mail to update customers as major milestones are accomplished on their account.
