ASPs that don t offer Internet services should consider getting on the bandwagon. The pressures of the new economy require businesses of all sizes to create more than just a presence on the Web. Businesses must now have the ability to do commerce. This is good news for ASPs.
Small businesses are particularly at risk of being left out of the new economy.
This could be a lost opportunity of tremendous proportions for the majority of small businesses. The speed and size of the digital marketplace dictate that Internet implementations be swift, flexible, and scalable. Many new businesses and new entrants to the Internet economy won t have the funds to lavish on traditional Internet services firms either. Again, good news for the ASPs. Just as small and midsize businesses don t have doodling time, big business is feeling the heat, too.
