Everywhere you look people are extolling the virtues of the
Internet. Every magazine, it seems, has stories about new .coms on its cover. But in all
the hype you won’t find many stories about traditional manufacturing companies.
Why? Because they face special issues. Often they have little or no knowledge of the end
consumer of their product, if there is one at all. Many are totally focused on selling
their products to other businesses. How can the .com world fit into their business
strategy? And how can they use it to increase their shareholder value?
TOMORROW
