Projects teams can do 2 types of consulting
projects.
Type 1: Internet-Based Business Plan.
In this type of project, your team is creating
a new business based on a creative way of using the Internet
for Marketing. Start-ups as such as CDNow, Amazon.com,
I/Pro (advertising measurement) or FocalLink (advertising
control and customization) are great examples of marketing-rich
Internet start-ups. The key goal here is to back up the
strength of the idea and concept with solid market and
customer analysis.

the Net can be used as part of the solution. Possible
areas might include:
- Creating new online specialty sites,
- Creating newly customized products,
- Inventing channels,
- Encouraging retail trial and repeat purchase,
- Increase customer awareness of existing services,
