Basically, this is one-stop shopping for a firm's marketing and communications needs and gives ordinary companies an affordable e-commerce entry point. Bringing more credibility to this deal is that Microforum's client list already includes a number of Fortune 500 customers. Microforum is a far different company than it was 18 months ago. Before its transformation, MCF had a number of disparate revenue streams without a clear vision of where the company should be heading. Turnaround specialist, Rick Winston, was hired as President and CEO to restructure this $30-million company into one poised for a breakout. His initial task was identifying that MCF would benefit by capitalizing upon its Internet Frontier (iFront) division. Internet Frontier's Electronic Commerce Suite of applications (ECS), a complete store environment, works on the Windows NT platform. This facilitates an e-commerce solution for most companies trying to exploit the favorable Internet shopping climate. All a company has to do is plug in the ECS into their existing computer then add their own graphics, product information, prices, and so on. Within 90-120 days, a firm could have a functioning on-line store offering up to 30,000 products. Statistics show that a company attempting to reproduce their own online system might spend up to $2 million and take 2 years to accomplish this feat. iFront is a Microsoft Certified Solution Provider and says it will be working with the Microsoft sales team to sell their e-commerce system. Now, the question arises: How will this "market niche" be cross-marketed and position the MCF for the breakout stage? TOMORROW -- Part 2 of this Special Report: How Microforum is developing into a "end to end" marketing, e-commerce, and communication company.
