Calling it what it is
I'm happy to see that some of you in the trenches are pointing out the
counterproductive tactics being used by some EDI players. I know that
regulars in this forum have seen similar 'outings' posted on eC-BP.org.
I'm taking this opportunity to call you to action and join eC-BP.org
to create a consolidated effort to identify issues such as the LNT
tactics, expose them for what they are, and build pressure to change
the business practices so they encourage rather than inhibit the
growth of e-Commerce.
To that end, I invite you to become a member of eC-BP.org. Below is
an explanation of the membership types. Right now, your postings
are "preaching to the choir." eC-BP's newsletter reaches 20,000
readers and can help promote your ideas.
Contact me with questions, or better yet, visit www.ec-bp.org and sign
up.
Thanks!
Scott Koegler
Editor, eC-BP.org
======================================
There is so much good work being done by so many forward thinking
people and companies that I truly believe if we join together to
promote the best and most business friendly ways of executing e-
Commerce strategies, we can make a difference. Add your name and
voice to eC-BP's efforts to increase adoption rates of EDI by lowering
the barriers to implementation.
Certified Memberships are FREE. Simply sign the statement that you
agree with and will abide by the eC-BP tenets (which you probably
already do) and you're in.
Affiliate Memberships are FREE. Sign the agreement statement and
participate in promoting eC-BP in some way.
Sponsorships are not free. Sponsors help to support eC-BP's ongoing
operations through their financial contributions. If your company
makes its money by selling EDI solutions, this is the membership level
for you.
Individuals:
All of you involved with EDI as employees of a company using EDI as
part of its daily business should join. If you're employed by a
vendor or a hub as an EDI analyst, programmer, vendor compliance
manager, CIO, buyer, accounting clerk, or in any way touch the EDI
chain, you should join as a Certified Member.
If you are an independent consultant, and NOT employed by a company
that sells EDI software or interconnect services, you should join as a
Certified Member. In your position, you may recommend certain
products and services, but your source of income is from consulting,
not commissions.
Companies:
If your company is a vendor or a hub using EDI, or considering EDI,
you should join as a Certified Member.
If your company is an EDI software or services vendor you should join
as a Sponsor. Individuals who are employed by software and services
vendors can also join as Sponsors.
If your company publishes a newsletter or magazine, or provides a
service (other than an EDI product) you should join as an Affiliate
Member.
Get together
Everyone who works with EDI should be a Certified Member of eC-BP.
I'm betting that you already agree with the eC-BP Tenets, and if so,
why not say so. Click this link to review the specifics, then sign up
and join me as a Certified Member
