Editor's Notes

  • #17: Established in 1999 was initially named as ShoeSite.com.Zappos.com, an e-commerce retailer successfully built a strong online brand.Belief in - You get repeat customers only through superior customer service.4 weeks intensive customer service training was given for every new employee.Cost effective online marketing such as SEM and affiliates does attract consumers.
  • #18: I believe that the businesses that create emotional bonds between them and their consumers will succeed going forward.A company with a Twitter account that it never uses is not going to do any better than a company without social media that is still able to connect satisfactorily with its customers. Social media is a means to an end, not an end unto itself.
