1. Static Sites are Dead • If your Web site can’t address visitors individually, change your site • If you can’t update your Web site without involving a programmer, change your site • Think wireless
2. eBusiness is NOT the Internet • Web sites are just the beginning • eBusiness supports your customers AND your employees • Your eBusiness strategy should delight your customers through superb customer service • Wireless technology is going to be pervasive
3. eBusiness is NOT Selling • eBusiness is not the same as eCommerce • eCommerce is selling things to people • eBusiness is handling the customer’s total experience with your company
4. Intermediaries are Changing • Who you used to sell things to will change • Who you used to buy things from will change • People who facilitate transactions will change • Expect and deal with channel conflict
5. Your ROI May BeYour Business • If you’re looking for a return on investment (ROI), it could just be your whole business • Other ROIs include: • Customer acquisition; • Customer retention; and • Cross-selling and/or up-selling. • Embrace your customers
6. Anticipate Change • Whatever you’re doing this year will be different next year • Your competitors are working as hard and fast as you are • Lead your customers so they won’t want to go anywhere else
7. Build Customers for Life • Ensure that their “switching costs” are high • Know them better than they know themselves • Use what you know about them to service them • Don’t give them any reason to go elsewhere • Embrace your customers
8. Opportunities Abound • eBusiness is allowing the world economy to reinvent itself. We have just begun to see the changes • Every industry will change, and you have the same opportunity as everyone else to be the agent of change
9. Your Doors are Always Open • Ensure your company’s information is always available • Build your systems to scale • Expect continual change
10. Be Fearless • First mover advantage is important, but overrated • Doing it right will be more successful • But don’t be too late or it will be too expensive to catch up
