part due to the size of businessto-business transactions and
the efficiencies the Internet

receives the benefit of receiving
offers from multiple companies
and the seller has the
advantage of being linked with

integrate with each other. The system should be user
friendly and available to various departments.

company receives in a central repository of customer

E-Mail
• One of the problems with e-mail is the low cost of
sending e-mails, which results in e-mail users
receiving a lot of unwanted e-mails. The result is that
more and more e-mail goes unopened and gaining
permission to send someone an e-mail is becoming
more important.
• E-mail needs to provide detailed, useful, even driven
information, and interaction with customers.
• E-mail needs to integrate with web marketing.
