Peet’s Coffee & Tea
Peet’s has been hand-roasting coffee since 1966. When they recently made the decision to expand into the national market, they knew that establishing a presence on the Internet was a necessity. Peet’s chose ROI Direct as its e-commerce partner because ROI’s advanced technology and expertise in internet marketing assured that Peet’s would receive advice and services of the highest calibre. With ROI Direct's eCommerce solution, Peet’s was able to develop a site that expressed its brand and boasted features – such as a review section and a ‘send a postcard to a friend’ option – that distinguished it from competing sites. Drawing on the success of its eCommerce site, Peet’s is growing and competing with coffee vendors many times its size. And it can be confident that ROI Direct’s technology and knowledge about the eCommerce industry will keep pace with its own growth.

Shopping.com
Shopping.com operates AltaVista's comprehensive merchandising portal, featuring home electronics, computer hardware & software, books, movies, music products, and more. Along with presenting a wide range of products, Shopping.com site visitors can research products and pricing, request recommendations, and compare product attributes and merchant ratings in order to make informed shopping decisions.

ROI Direct hosts online consumer registrations for selected product offers from AltaVista Shopper, which collects special product offers from merchants and matches them with these registered consumers. ROI Direct then formats and sends e-mail broadcasts of these promotional offers to each consumer according to their specific categories of interest.

By literally linking shoppers to desired products, these personalized emails provide added value to both merchants and consumers. Shopping.com chose ROI Direct to handle its outbound email campaigns because they preferred to focus their engineering on their more merchandising-related projects. In comparison to three other application service providers (ASPs) investigated by Shopping.com, ROI Direct proved most able to meet the site's specifications and requirements, while still offering an affordable cost.
