Effective
e-commerce is complete commerce. Cutting
the 'e' from e-commerce may seem a
retrograde step but Niftysoft Solution
have learned that a successful e-commerce
web site must integrate fully with
off-line business activities.
Niftysoft Solution build highly functional
and cost-effective, 'open-all-hours'
shop fronts. Typically these include
assimilated, client-specific databases;
secure, on-line trading facilities
and web site elements designed to
keep customers returning on a regular
basis.
Some benefits enabled
through a Niftysoft Solution web solution
are ease of cross-currency trading,
global market, low cost of sales are
evident.
Less obvious are advantages such as
opening a secure, centralized 'virtual'
office accessible worldwide; walking
onto a level playing field where any
business can compete; having direct
access to maximized niche markets;
enhancing business-to-business, trading
partners, customer and investor relationship
management; enabling instant updates
in response to changing business conditions.
Electronic
commerce - the process of
buying and selling on the World Wide
Web - is probably the most important
and exciting thing about the internet.
Already it is changing the way people
trade: Internet shops never close
and customers can come from anywhere
in the world. And it's not just new,
young 'internet' companies who find
advantages in trading over the web.
For a lot of established 'real world'
businesses, e-commerce can also offer
a valuable extra dimension. You don't
have to choose one method over the
other; either e-commerce often works
best when it is conducted parallel
to a real-life shop or service. Whether
you want a full-functioned web store
to run your whole business from, or
just a few mail-order style catalogue
pages to take in some extra orders,
e-commerce is for you. In fact, we
cannot think of one type of sales-based
business, which could not benefit
from e-commerce in some way.
Selling your products
or services on the Internet has several
real advantages over traditional methods
of trading. By moving your business
to the Net it becomes possible to
target new markets that can be otherwise
difficult to reach. Selling directly
to your customer base is also extremely
cost effective in terms of labor and
allows a greater degree of control
over distribution. Moving business
over to the Internet is also relatively
cheap and affords an extremely low
risk exposure compared to the benefits
gained.
The rapid growth
in Internet business is about to increase
dramatically as BT introduces flat
fee call charges. The Government's
e-commerce minister has stated that
the government regards metered call
charging as a "clear barrier"
to the growth of e-commerce in the
UK.
Second and third
generation Internet is also emerging,
with interactive TV and non-PC Internet
access devices providing ever-easier
ways for your customers and competitors
to trade on-line.
The logical step
for any company expecting to survive
in this competitive new marketplace
is to establish an effectively integrated
on-line presence with the Internet
at the center of the business - the
companies that experience growth in
this sector will be the ones that
fully embrace the opportunities offered
by the net.
The level of integration of Internet
technology into the day to day running
of a business will be a major factor
in the success or failure of that
business on the Internet.
