The world of electronic commerce (e-commerce) is a highly competitive one that encompasses industries from banking to retailing to transportation. Focazio, president of Focazio.Com Enterprises, which assists organizations in creating practical interactive business strategies, here presents a guide to success strategies for e-commerce. Focazio maintains that e-commerce is "more than fancy web servers, good visual design, and online shopping. E-commerce is about forming and managing effective interactive relationships with your target audiences." The author stresses that e-business is a full-time undertaking and states that doing business online is like "having an eighth day of the week, e-day." The topics covered include identifying goals and forming a flexible action plan to attain them; identifying the right audience; creating an information-routing structure; implementing, maintaining, and improving the interactive service; and monitoring return on investment (ROI). Focazio uses case studies of successful and not-so-successful enterprises to illustrate strategies and guidelines. This helpful guide to becoming a competitive player on the web is recommended for both practitioners and students of business and should be considered for purchase by public and academic libraries.
