Internet Marketing Scenarios

Pure-Play Scenario Firms such as Yahoo!,

eBay and Egghead.com Highly likely that both

online and offline marketing levers (e.g. customer e-mails and print ads) are going to be used to build a customer relationship.

Processes of segmentation, targeting and positioning remain largely the same as for offline business.

Brick-and-Mortar Scenario

Firms such as The Gap with both offline retail stores and an online store

Since offline stores preceded online store, Gap online must optimize its online marketing strategy within the context of Gap’s broader strategy – i.e. its offline positioning, image, and asset base.
