Abstract

The advances of the Internet have enabled some companies to dematerialize their products so that digital versions of their products can be personalized and shipped to customers without the usual logistics costs and delays. Once this is achieved, then the opportunities to provide customers with additional services, or to transform from a product-based to a service based company, could be tremendous. This case traces the experience of Intuit in pursuing its digital channel to sell and distribute its products, the challenges faced in making this migration while managing the physical channel, and the new service opportunities that the company created once the digital channel is in place.
