Polaris
Blue focuses on building a web presence and
system that (either from the outset or eventually)
becomes an integrated part of a company’s
operations – i.e. the web ‘arm’
of the business. The web has an amazing potential
to extend the reach of your company into other,
less accessible markets, give greater convenience
to your customers and to operate 24/7. You also
do not have the same ongoing costs related to
location, as regards any other retail and/or
operational space.
However, like any other business arm, the web
channel needs to be supported, developed and
promoted. Many people believe that simply having
a website is enough (often with products and
the ability to purchase online, but often not),
and that marketing and/or promoting the website
is unnecessary. This would be akin to having
a retail store full of stock but with only having
a phone number listed in the yellow pages, as
well as having the windows on the street boarded
up. In this case, the only way for people to
find you would be to know about you, where you
are located and to literally walk into your
store to start even looking at any of your products,
services and offers.
The web channel can achieve truly evolutionary
results with the right input, effort and strategic
thought behind it – This is exactly what
it needs to succeed.
