Description: As anyone who reads this magazine knows, we believe that a successful Internet retailing strategy and implementation is the linchpin for success in today`s retailing environment. A company that runs a chain of retail stores underutilizes that asset if it doesn`t equip those stores with web-based POS devices, or take orders over the web for pick-up at the store, or leverage its brand by using the web to reach beyond the natural market coverage of its physical locations. A merchant that markets primarily through catalogs is burning marketing dollars if it doesn`t use that catalog to drive customers to a sophisticated web site that can process orders more efficiently than a call center and display many more SKUs than a catalog. And no direct-TV marketer can purport to be an "electronic retailer" unless it understands that in today`s world electronic means the Internet.
