Customer Migration
So what is this Customer Migration thing and how does it differ from Internet Marketing? Simple, Internet marketing primarily helps companies who need to increase the number of people who click to their website. Customer Migration helps most of the rest of
the companies.
To benefit from Customer Migration, a company need only fit two categories:
Consider, for example, your local bank.
If the bank wants to think in Internet Marketing mode, it can build a marketing-brochure website that extols the benefits of opening an account with them and heartily encourages you and other web surfers to drive to the nearest branch and deposit some money. In this case, yes, the bank could benefit somewhat from good ol' fashioned Internet Marketing.
However, if the bank is smart, it will think in Customer Migration mode.
The bank will build an Internet banking solution for its current customer base. By getting its customers to use the Internet to do banking transactions, the bank will significantly reduce its expenses and save substantial cash over time.
Cheaper and More Efficient
But will Internet Marketing motivate the bank's customers to use its Internet solution? You and I both know that all the sexy web banner ads in the world won't be enough to shift the bank's customer base to the web. Ditto for reciprocal links, search engine registration, opt-in direct e-mail, and most of the other stuff traditional Internet marketers use.
A New Kind of Campaign
What makes Customer Migration so remarkable is that it doesn't just apply to banks. It applies to all companies trying to use the Internet to better their business and their customers' lives. Plus, it doesn't just apply to websites. Kiosks, intranets, extranets, and other Internet applications require similar Customer Migration efforts.
Lots of companies in lots of industries -- banks, package shipping companies, manufacturers, retail stores, and even supermarkets -- are already
thinking in Customer Migration mode. Dozens of other vertical industries will be thinking this way very soon. Do you want to just increase click-throughs to the web site when most of the global companies need to migrate customers?
