7 Reasons Why You Need a Website

Should your business have a website, even if your business is small and sells products or services you don't think can be sold online? Yes, if you have a business, you should have a website. Period. No question. Without a doubt.

That said, it's not enough that you just have a website. You must have a professional-looking site if you want to be taken seriously. Since many consumers now search for information online before making a decision, your site may be the first chance you have at making a good impression on a potential buyer.
One of the great things about the internet is that it has leveled the playing field when it comes to competing with bigger companies. You have one shot at making a good first impression. With a well-designed site, your little operation can project the image and professionalism of a much larger organization.

​Your website is an important part of your business.

1.) Be a "big boy"

It used to be that only giant companies could afford to have websites. But thanks to today's technology, and website developers like me, it's easy and affordable to have a website that's as professional and sophisticated as any Fortune 500 company.​

3.) The SBA agrees

According to the Small Business Administration, small businesses with a website average $1.07 million more in sales than those not online. That's 39% more revenue. Do the math. Add 39% to your last year's revenue. Nice, right?

5.) Have a business that never closes

With a website, you are open for business 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year--including weekends and holidays. Who knows when prospects may be looking for your products or services? With a website, you're always available.

7.) Your competitors probably have a site

Here's how to tell. Go online and type in your business category. Don't be surprised to see how many others are offering the same thing as you. Why should they get all the business? With my help, they won't. Soon, and at a price you can afford, you will be doing everything they are--and more. I guarantee it!

2.) Cast a wide net

Remember when "let your fingers do the walking" through the Yellow Pages was the way to find businesses? Today it's the Internet. About 80% of consumers use the Internet before they make a purchase. Can you afford to be invisible to them?
​

4.) Strut your stuff

A website is the perfect place to show your wares and showcase your capabilities. Add success stories and testimonials. Provide news about new products or services, upcoming events, special promotions and sales. I can easily make sure that your site is always up-to-date.​

6.) Tie into the social media revolution​

Are you on Facebook and Twitter? It seems that everyone is these days. I can help you connect your website to these sites and others, including LinkedIn, YouTube, Pinterest, and Google+ to cross pollinate your business. It may sound complicated, but I'll make it effortless for you.
