I have been trying to understand the significance and implications of John Hwang's Online Services division. Everybody seems to know how the Music Card works and to understand the teleservices division. The following information comes from the TSIG web site tsig.com <<eSoftware—Packaged Solutions for Rent Want an Amazon.com type system? Want it done yesterday? Not interested in reinventing the wheel?>> Comment: "For rent" is perhaps better understood as "for lease." Lease payments are immediately tax deductible, whereas a company that set up its own system may have to amortize the cost over several years. The tax benefits of leasing over owning can be significant, particularly in an area where obsolescence will probably occur in 2-5 years. The reference to an Amazon.com type system is apparently to indicate that no project is too big for tsig.com, and it can be accomplished fast. <<Like most businesses, you are probably more interested in advancing your core business than in becoming an eBusiness guru.>> Comment: Many businesses will continue to do the bulk of their business off the Internet, but due to fear of competition, feel they must have an Internet presence. Do these companies need a custom-designed, award-winning site that is the envy of all the other ball-bearing manufacturers? They would probably be pleased with an attractive, functional site that relays their message. An experienced programming team could achieve significant efficiency by reusing certain design features. <<Just ask someone who has tried the do-it-yourself approach. Almost universally, budgets are exceeded, schedules are delayed and personnel resources are taxed.>> Comment: The company may be under strong competitive pressure to get on the Internet fast. So does the company boldly go where the company has never gone before, or does the company purchase some outside expertise? <<With tsig.com eSoftware, you tell us what you want and we make it happen. You avoid the high setup cost normally associated with eBusiness implementation because we charge you on a subscription basis.>> Comment: Not only would the company avoid the high setup cost, but would avoid the uncertainty of how high the cost may go. By using tsig.com's eSoftware, the costs would be known beforehand. <<Some of our eSoftware solutions include:. . .E-Commerce Storefront. . .Intranet Portal>> Comment: Probably the e-commerce storefront, a web site where products are being offered directly to the consumer, would utilize TSIG's expertise to the greatest extent. This type of web site would possibly be TSIG's niche market. <<You outsource your payroll. You lease your equipment. Now outsource your eBusiness to tsig.com. Click here to witness tsig.com eSoftware in action>> Comment: It's always amazed me that companies outsource their payroll. After all, payroll is not brain-surgery. A few modestly-paid clerical personnel can handle payroll for a large organization. Yet, the success of the payroll companies indicate that this is economically feasible. Leasing equipment is especially desirable when the equipment is expected to become out-of-date before the depreciation period ends. E-business is beyond the expertise of the majority of us, and nothing is becoming obsolescent faster than computers and software. "Click here" takes you to the MyMusicCard site. This needs to be a show-off site. There used to be a lot of discussion on the thread about improvements that were needed. It is important to the success of TSIG that that the Music Card site be top-notch. It's a major selling point. The card site has a "Contact Us" feature which allows us to e-mail any suggestions we have for improvements. Where are the numbers? We need numbers. Next post. Regards, Suzanne
