Net Gain
Identifies where the next level of value lies on the Internet and lays out the first economic model to quantify the revenue potential and the investment required to build a successful virtual community. This book offers numerous real-world scenarios and lessons for building value and creating competitive edge.
This text on competing successfully in the online world is organised into three sections: virtual communities as sources of power and profitability; establishing a virtual community; and the implications for firm and industry structure.
Issues explored include managing new kinds of customer expectations, partnering to leverage technological capabilities, and choosing where and how to compete.
The text aims to help managers avoid the costly mistake of waiting before establishing a virtual community, and forces them to rethink what they understand to be driving their businesses.
