John Maynard Keynes didn't live on Internet time, but if he had, he probably would have been a fan of McKinsey & Co. strategy consultant John Hagel. Practical, powerful men, Keynes wrote, are usually the unwitting slaves of some defunct intellectual scribbler. Hagel is a scribbler, but these days, because things move so fast, thinkers like him don't have to die before they get the credit due them.
Hagel is a fountain of concepts that are being put into practice all over the Web. In 1997, his book Net Gain (co-authored by Arthur G. Armstrong) suggested how noncommercial Web communities could use content, chat, and bulletin boards to promote e-commerce. Hagel's reputation stems from what happened after Net Gain came out: a burst of new sites serving special interests from cooking to golf. ''I think he's a combination of someone who can put a name on things that are already happening and an instigator,'' says Ron Martinez, CEO of Brodia Group, an e-commerce startup.
In 1999, Hagel was back with Net Worth (co-author, Marc Singer), arguing that a new way to make money online is to become an ''infomediary.'' An infomediary would gather its customers' profiles and seek out special offers and discounts for them from suppliers on the Net. He says an average consumer could save more than $1,100 a year even after paying commissions on purchases. The infomediary would make the rest of its money selling profiles to marketers, who would cough up because of the advantages of precise targeting.
What's next? Net Net. It's about how brick-and-mortar companies try to become infomediaries. Don't rush out to buy it, though. Net Net will be finished ''as soon as my wife lets me,'' says Hagel. |
