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
