IT430 E-Commerce Assignment No 1 Solution Fall 2012

Question 1: ( 2 + 3 ) = 5 Marks
Assume that there is a company named “Lenzan” that deals in selling furniture to the customers in its franchises

located in different cities. The company also handles online orders alongside traditional manual business. In your opinion does it lie in E- business or traditional business or blend of both? Justify your answer with solid reasons.


E-business is built electronically on a network; therefore, without a network it’s completely impossible for an e-business to survive (please refer to What is E-Business).T
The use of technology will bring a huge impact on the way of a business communicates with its customers. This business communication models are categorized by Schneider into three different types


Personal contact (one to one)
In this type of communication model, the organization assigns its employees to identify and reach the prospective customers [1]. The simplest example for this approach is the sales person who calls the potential customer and introduces the products offered by his company. This approach has been widely implemented by traditional business.
Mass media (one to many)
The mass media approach allows the organization to broadcast advertising and promotional materials on its products [1]Examples for this approach are advertisement on television, radio, newspaper or magazine. This approach has also been widely adopted by traditional business.
The web (many to one or many to many)
The internet is neither a mass media nor a personal contact device [1]. It stands on the middle of the fine line where mass media is allocated at the first side and personal contact at the other side. The web provides more interactivity than mass media does to its audience but less than personal contact could offer. For example, an internet user can type in his keywords on a search engine tool (e.g. google) and click on the products that catch his attention. The web is the approach that is adopted by e-business.
