Assignment:
B2B vs. B2C Information Systems
1. Many wholesale organizations decide to diversify and extend their reach by adding direct-to-consumers sales or services. If a business was strictly an online B2B organization, how would it need to change its information systems to enable B2C services?
Supporting Supply Chain
2. It is much easier for a business to build revenue and profit from current customers who return for additional products or services than to find new customers.

Provide examples of how each would support a supply chain strategy that includes maximizing customers returning to make additional purchases.
Career Growth

Consider the following questions when researching:
• Are there projects you could be assigned to in your current position of IT?
