An intranet is a computer network
that uses Internet Protocol technology to securely share any
part of an organization's information or network operating
system within that organization. The term is used in contrast to
internet, a network between organizations, and instead refers to
a network within an organization. Sometimes the term refers only
to the organization's internal website, but may be a more
extensive part of the organization's information technology
infrastructure. It may host multiple private websites and
constitute an important component and focal point of internal
communication and collaboration. Internet technologies are often
deployed to provide modern interfaces to legacy information
systems hosting corporate data.
Intranets have also
contrasted with extranets. While intranets are generally
restricted to employees of the organization, extranets may also
be accessed by customers, suppliers, or other approved parties.
Extranets extend a private network onto the Internet with
special provisions for authentication, authorization and
accounting (AAA protocol).
In many organizations, intranets
can be protected from unauthorized external access by means of a
network gateway and firewall. For smaller companies, intranets
may be created simply by using private IP ranges, such as
192.168.*.*. In these cases, the intranet can only be directly
accessed from a computer in the local network; however,
companies may provide access to off-site employees by using a
virtual private network. Other security measures may be used,
such as user authentication and encryption.
Alternatively,
the intranet domain may be publicly accessible, but users would
need to log in before they could view most of the content.
Benefits
• Workforce productivity: Intranets can help
users to locate and view information faster and use applications
relevant to their roles and responsibilities. With the help of a
web browser interface, users can access data held in any
database the organization wants to make available, anytime and -
subject to security provisions - from anywhere within the
company workstations, increasing employees' ability to perform
their jobs faster, more accurately, and with confidence that
they have the right information. It also helps to improve the
services provided to the users.
• Time:
Intranets allow organizations to distribute information to
employees on an as-needed basis; Employees may link to relevant
information at their convenience, rather than being distracted
indiscriminately by electronic mail.
• Communication:
Intranets can serve as powerful tools for communication within
an organization, vertically and horizontally. From a
communications standpoint, intranets are useful to communicate
strategic initiatives that have a global reach throughout the
organization. The type of information that can easily be
conveyed is the purpose of the initiative and what the
initiative is aiming to achieve, who is driving the initiative,
results achieved to date, and who to speak to for more
information. By providing this information on the intranet,
staffs have the opportunity to keep up-to-date with the
strategic focus of the organization. Some examples of
communication would be chat, email, and or blogs. A great real
world example of where an intranet helped a company communicate
is when Nestle had a number of food processing plants in
Scandinavia. Their central support system had to deal with a
number of queries every day. When Nestle decided to invest in an
intranet, they quickly realized the savings. McGovern says the
savings from the reduction in query calls was substantially
greater than the investment in the intranet.
• Web
publishing allows cumbersome corporate knowledge to be
maintained and easily accessed throughout the company using
hypermedia and Web technologies. Examples include: employee
manuals, benefits documents, company policies, business
standards, news feeds, and even training, can be accessed using
common Internet standards (Acrobat files, Flash files, CGI
applications). Because each business unit can update the online
copy of a document, the most recent version is usually available
to employees using the intranet.
• Business
operations and management: Intranets are also being
used as a platform for developing and deploying applications to
support business operations and decisions across the
internetworked enterprise.
• Cost-effective: Users can view
information and data via web-browser rather than maintaining
physical documents such as procedure manuals, internal phone
list and requisition forms. This can potentially save the
business money on printing, duplicating documents, and the
environment as well as document maintenance overhead. For
example, People soft "derived significant cost savings by
shifting HR processes to the intranet". McGovern goes on to say
the manual cost of enrolling in benefits was found to be
USD109.48 per enrollment. "Shifting this process to the intranet
reduced the cost per enrollment to $21.79; a saving of 80
percent". Another company that saved money on expense reports
was Cisco. "In 1996, Cisco processed 54,000 reports and the
amount of dollars processed was USD19 million".
•
Enhance collaboration: Information is easily accessible
by all authorised users, which enables teamwork.
•
Cross-platform capability: Standards-compliant web
browsers are available for Windows, Mac, and UNIX.
•
Built for one audience: Many companies dictate computer
specifications which, in turn, may allow Intranet developers to
write applications that only have to work on one browser (no
cross-browser compatibility issues). Being able to specifically
address your "viewer" is a great advantage. Since Intranets are
user-specific (requiring database/network authentication prior
to access), you know exactly who you are interfacing with and
can personalize your Intranet based on role (job title,
department) or individual ("Congratulations Jane, on your 3rd
year with our company!").
• Promote common corporate
culture: Every user has the ability to view the same
information within the Intranet.
• Immediate updates:
When dealing with the public in any capacity, laws,
specifications, and parameters can change. Intranets make it
possible to provide your audience with "live" changes so they
are kept up-to-date, which can limit a company's liability.
•
Supports a distributed computing architecture: The intranet can
also be linked to a company’s management information system, for
example a time keeping system.
Newsletter, a form of newspaper and informational letter
communicates your ideas and business strategies to your readers!
It is more often used by companies to sell targeted ads within
their newsletters. Newsletters are a valuable communications
tool for building a gradual, lasting, long-term relationship
with existing and prospective customers.
The basic types of
Newsletters are:
- Promotional Newsletters:
This type of newsletter is frequently used by businesses to
promote a product or service. It is also known as a marketing
newsletter.
- Relationship Newsletters:
Examples of this type of newsletter are club newsletters,
employee newsletters, church newsletters, and alumni
newsletters. They focus on the shared interests of the target
audience.
- Expert Newsletters: Usually
subscription-based, these newsletters generally focus on a
specific topic and the recipient is someone who has specifically
requested the information in the newsletter and is willing to
pay for the information.
Our capabilities include preparing
the newsletter on the clients matter and getting it sent on
regular basis and then giving them detailed analysis of the
campaign that they have recently carried out. We are tied up
with mailup for this kind of activity.
Having a website is not a big deal, but making it search engine

potential to drive up traffic and can help you gain the target
customers you need to grow and succeed.

important factor that has the capability to turn the tables

(CRM) is a widely-implemented strategy for managing a company’s
interactions with customers, clients and sales prospects. It
involves using technology to organize, automate, and synchronize
business processes—principally sales activities, but also those
for marketing, customer service, and technical support. The
overall goals are to find, attract, and win new clients, nurture
and retain those the company already has, entice former clients
back into the fold, and reduce the costs of marketing and client
service. Customer relationship management describes a
company-wide business strategy including customer-interface
departments as well as other departments. Measuring and valuing
customer relationships is critical to implementing this
strategy.
Sales force automation (SFA)
involves using software to streamline all phases of the sales
process, minimizing the time that sales representatives need to
spend on each phase. This allows a business to use fewer sales
representatives to manage their clients. At the heart of SFA is
a contact management system for tracking and recording every
stage in the sales process for each prospective client, from
initial contact to final disposition. Many SFA applications also
include insights into opportunities, territories, sales
forecasts and workflow automation, quote generation, and product
knowledge.
