In this day of technology, advertising in the phonebook or newspaper just doesn’t cut it anymore. You need an online presence as that is the most common way that new clients and customers will find you in today’s marketplace. Just think….when you are trying to decide which restaurant to go to, or what movie to go to, do you look in the phonebook or in the local paper? Most of the time, the answer is probably, “no.” This is even truer of today’s generation. We turn to our tablets and smartphones to look up everything from the weather to doing online shopping.
However, it’s not enough just to have a website. You need a website that makes clients WANT to do business with you. Don’t make the mistake that many other professionals still make – having a website made by their neighbor in his spare time.
Here’s my personal story that affected who I did business with:
Last year, when we were putting our house up for sale, I really wanted to deal with one particular real estate agent, however, his website did not project a professional appearance. There were (and still are) spelling mistakes in the navigation menu, and the pictures were being cut off. He blamed it on his camera. I know that he even bought a new camera, but it wasn’t his camera.
A big part of real estate is that prospective home buyers want to go to your website to see images of the homes for sale. Even more important though, is that the clients you are selling the home for, want their home to be showcased in the best possible manner. That means ensuring that your website is working properly and is completely professional in appearance, not just parts of it.
So how does this relate to you and your business?
If you already have a website or some small amount of online presence, I can help you to improve it. I can provide a consulting service only, or I can help you get things done! You just need to let me know what you would like help with.
What if you don’t have a website?
That’s what I’m here to help you do. I can help you with everything from choosing a domain name, registering it, choosing a web host, designing your site in consultation with you, improving your social media efforts, setting up a branded email address, and so forth! All you have to do is ask me, and we’ll come up with a plan that works for you, and within your budget.
Because I use wordpress to build your website/blog, this makes it easier for you to add and update content on your website on your own (if this is what you’d like). I never hold your new website/blog hostage! Just let me know as I offer training on how you can do this, after your site is completed. You can find out more information about what I use to build my websites by visiting the FAQ section.
Let me help you let the world know what a standout professional you are! Get your business noticed by standing out from the crowd!
