want your emails – I only
want your catalogue
Think about interruption and channel
intermediation

This will happen
• Customers will expect to find information online
• Customers will eventually expect to be able to
compare services/products online
• Customers will increase their e-commerce
spending
• Customers will be able to take their business
elsewhere by the click of a button
• Customers will expect offline/online integration
• New competitors will try to enter if opportunity
presents itself
(c) Michael Leander Nielsen, 2009 15
How do you leverage this opportunity?
• Becoming a first mover is a seriously
effective strategy
• You need a compelling customer focused
internet marketing strategy
• You need to set specific key internet
marketing objectives

early adapters often have to be patient
