Whre Do We Go From Here?

Markets are changing at an accelerating rate. Industy boundaries are blurring. Companies more than ever need qUick and reliabe intelligence about their customers, competitors, distribuors and products. More companies are meognising the prescient wisdom in Piter Drucker's observation that "the customer is the business".

Ths article discusses about where edeting is headed in the new millennium. It will do so by looking back into the futhe. It is the year 2005. Here are the maor developments in the evolving marketplace/mar ketspace:

There has been substantial disinterInediation of wholesalers and retailers owing to elechonic commree. Virtually all Pwhucts are now availahle withou going to a shop. The customr can access pictures of any product on the Ihtemet, read the specilication, shop among online vendors for the best prices and terms, and click order and Paymen over the Intemet.

Engnsively printed catalm have disappeed. Business-to-busi-ness purehasing over the Intemet has increased even faster than online customer buving. Business purehasing agents shop for rouine items on the Intemet, either advertising their needs and waiting for bidders or simply suffing in their "fored" web sites. Shop-based retailers find shop traffic highly dindnished. In response, more entrepimeanal ndailers are bullding entertainment and theatre into their shops. Many book shops, bo shop and clothes shop now include coffee bars and feature lecthers and perfomrmces. Essentially these shop are marketing an "expeence" rathr than a pIoduct assortment.

Most companies have built proprietw customer databases conaining rich infonnaion on individual customer preferences and requirements. They use this infonnation to "mass custondse" their offerings to individuals.

An increasing nuInber of companties present online product platforms on which customere design products to suit their own specifications. Many automobile, computer, domestic appliance and food companies invite customrs to visit their web page and design the fort offering (product, service, system, program) by filling in choices on a form. The modified product is then displayed on the screen. Businesses are doing a better job of retaining customers through finding imaginative ways to exceed customr expectations. As a result, competitors find it increasingly difficult to acquire new customrs and most cMes are spending time figuring out how to sell more products and services to their ekisting customere. Companies are focusing on bullding customer share drier than market share. Many have though up new ways to increase cross-selling and up-seiling. Companies are gaining segment and customr insigh from their detawarehouses by applving newer and more effective dadrining techniops
