- Provide Services Available OffLine
Why would someone want to use a client ExtraNet? Why do people use Amazon.com? Becuase it's more convenient for them to shop online than in a store.
If you can offer some form of your business online, even as a sample or demo, you will grab the attention of more people.
- Automation, The Ultimate Time Saver
Existing clients can use the ExtraNet to order or request for more of the service or product you provide.
Instead of having them call in each time they want to re-order or ask a question, and have them give you their personal information (which you then have to look up and verify),
existing customers can submit a form through the ExtraNet, and automatically their information is already at your fingertips. It's a great time saver!

- Charge, Charge, And Then Charge Again
Offer existing and new clients a teaser section, giving them a few added perks and services, such as customer and technical support through the ExtraNet or delivery status sections, then roll out the added services.
For an additional fee offer to provide them with comprehensive reports about their business with you, including cost analysis. Give them a reason to keep coming back to you.
Maybe customers who pay for the additional ExtraNet service are entered into drawings for free prizes. Whatever it is you can offer, the ExtraNet is a great additional source of revenue.
- Clients Are More Likely To Comeback
Making the customer stick around the site gives you a greater ability to promote your business. They are already there, either checking on the status of an order or service, or whatnot,
so you might as well show off some of your new services or products while you have their attention. Are they checking the status of the delivery? Show them your latest special for free shipping on orders above $100.
- The Third Party Source
If you can find banner ads or a business partner who wants to promote their complimentary service or product on your web site, charge them for it.
Banner ads will pay you if your clients are interested enough to click, and you can show partners that the ExtraNet is used by all your clients, and each page could have a banner or link to their site, adding to their success, as well as your pocketbook!

- The Full Client Relations Manager
There's always a catch. The catch to the ExtraNet is that you need a way of tracking the customers and their information. IntentionallyU has such a product.
We can create the ultimate Customer Database to keep track of eveything you do for your customers.
Here is an example of how IntentionallyU implemented a fully functional Customer Database solution to track everything from the address of the client to the phone calls with that client, to the lab work done on their seeds.
An ExtraNet can be a powerful tool for your customers. The Database on the backend can be a powerful tool for you.
