     databases  holding  individual  pieces  of  informaPon   about  customers  &  orders,  none  communicate  with  each  other   •  Each  brand  website  is  on  a  different  plaXorm,  none  is  very  easy  to   maintain  nor  opPmize  without  reliance  on  mulPple  outside  vendors   •  Significant  human  intervenPon  and  effort  is  required  to  translate  data   from  one  source  to  the  next,  creaPng  room  for  error  and  inefficiency   •  Disjointed  customer  communicaPons  –  no  ability  to  segment  based  on   new  leads,  exisPng  customers,  order  histories,  etc  –  blanket  approach   •  AnalyPcs  and  performance  data  becomes  almost  incomprehensible— various  KPI’s,  metrics,  reporPng  methods—interprePng  data  becomes   overwhelming,  ‘best  guess’  approach  to  translaPon

  6. New  Technology  Vision:  Initial  Concerns •  Individual  brands’  autonomy  and

     control  over  creaPve  direcPon  may   be  affected  in  pursuit  of  a  more  “uniform”  collecPve  approach   •  Features  &  funcPonality  for  individual  sites  will  be  limited  based  on   common  site  plaXorm   •  Timelines  for  individual  site  launches  will  be  impeded  based  on  a  single   vendor  and  mulPple  sites  going  concurrently   •  Not  all  brands  share  the  same  business  model  or  go  to  market  strategy   –  is  one  web  plaXorm  soluPon  right  for  all?
