Abstract

Technological advances favor new ways of offering products and services by companies to their clients thereby affecting various aspects of the organizations and society. One of the agents playing a role in this transformation is the Internet by means of electronic commerce. How does Relationship Marketing position itself when relations with the client become essentially carried out by means of the computer? A discussion is highlighted about the elements of Relationship Marketing to be managed, overcome, assimilated or used in benefit of the companies with results from the Internet or those already active, however under the influence of this new context, seeking to maintain or develop competitive advantages. An exploratory research was conducted in the form of a multicase study of consumer market companies in the São Paulo metropolitan area. A reflection is made about the practices of Relationship Marketing, the implementation on the company sites and on the mutual interferences between issues inherent to Relationship Marketing and Internet operations.
