Do You Need A Website?

This is a question new business owners face!

Starting a new business often requires coming out of pocket for a lot of expenses. Business owners are always for looking for ways to save a few dollars here and there as they are getting their business off the ground. 

Would the website be an asset or a liability?

Lets take a look at some benefits of having a website....

1. Cheaper and Much More Flexible Than Print AdvertisingThe Internet is extremely different from print advertising in that space is cheap, your advertisement is accessible for a longer period of time, the content can be changed without having to ask someone to do it for you and you can potentially reach a wider audience.

2. 24/7/365No more turning customers away when its time to close shop, putting up a note saying "closed for public holiday" or leaving an irritating message on your answering service specifying your hours. Customers can/will visit your website for the information they are looking for.

3. Improve credibilityA website gives you the opportunity to tell potential customers what you are about and why you deserve their trust and confidence. The Internet also allows for Viral Marketing where your website visitors spread positive word-of-mouth about your business - your customers do your marketing!

You have to spend money to make money. A website is a great investment to your new or old business. 

A few nights ago I sold a website to a family friend who is opening a new restaurant in the next few weeks. I am excited to see the finished product!
