Insight Enterprises
Given the success of the Hard Drives International model, the brothers repeated the strategy and altered the business by changing the name of the company to Insight Direct, Inc..
Originally, Insight attracted customers through advertising and the use of inbound toll-free telephone lines. In 1993, the company expanded its marketing mix to include catalogs and added outbound telephone account executives to focus on establishing a larger customer base. The company eventually became a large catalog company that mailed tens of millions of product booklets annually. In 1995, Insight debuted on the World Wide Web.

Famous quotes containing the words insight and/or enterprises:
“I know that I will always be expected to have extra insight into black texts—especially texts by black women. A working-class Jewish woman from Brooklyn could become an expert on Shakespeare or Baudelaire, my students seemed to believe, if she mastered the language, the texts, and the critical literature. But they would not grant that a middle-class white man could ever be a trusted authority on Toni Morrison.”
—Claire Oberon Garcia, African American scholar and educator. Chronicle of Higher Education, p. B2 (July 27, 1994)
“There is nothing man will not attempt when great enterprises hold out the promise of great rewards.”
—Titus Livius (Livy)
