Externally,the Web can help businesses collaborate and communicate with customers and consultants, as well as distribute documentation. Catalogues, reports, and documentation are cheaper and easier to post one time on a Web page, rather than printing and mailing to customers, your sales force, or remote offices. Sales representatives or customers can easily access collateral, presentations, and critical product information.

An Intranet Web site for employees (a Web site just for internal use) enables the same kinds of benefits internally, and with new economy.

Sales, product development, accounting departments, document production, and manufacturing - these and other teams can share information, electronically produce and update documents on the fly, or download information as needed.

And with the Web, you know every employee has exactly the same information.

In short, the Web can turn your business into an around-the-clock operation, always ready to provide information, solicit feedback, and conduct business, even when you're not available!
