What does electronic commerce deliver?
- Lower operating costs
By operating online, organizations are able to reduce paperwork
and other processing costs. Customer self-service order
entry improves order accuracy and helps reduce costly product
returns. Online ordering also helps reduce pricing errors
and expensive calls by your customer service personnel.
- Higher revenues
As well as higher revenues through an increased customer
base and market size, many organizations have experienced
a dramatic increase in their per order size. Customers are
browsing and buying more through their extensive online
catalog of products (offer more products - make more sales).
- Increased customer base
The competitive advantage of offering electronic commerce
can help win new customers who already use the Internet
for purchasing and prefer dealing with vendors who offer
secured online procurement services.
- New market opportunities
Creates an opportunity to expand market coverage in order
to reach new markets with a 24-hour-a-day, 7-days-a-week
purchasing and research capabilities.
- Enhanced customer service
Customers now have the opportunity to do business with their
vendors when they want to, whether it is during or after
normal business hours. This means that they can focus their
business hours on making their own profits and not be restricted
by their vendor's call center hours.
- New advertising revenue

the opportunity to manage and sell advertising space to
their trading partners whose products they carry.
