A website is critical for each and every business. If you are a start-up business and someone is trying to find out more about you but you have no website, where do they go? Your website should be your top salesperson, the best source for all reliable information about your firm, your product lines, your services, or whatever your company is offering the public. If a new or old business wants to thrive (and survive this economy) it needs to be out there, in all potential customers reach, with information quickly at their disposal, and the first place they will look is on the internet to find your website!
Pros of having a website:
1. Web presence - it could be argued that having a web presence makes you appear legitimate.
2. Begin to market immediately, potential to get business without cold calling or going door to door
3. As a less expense long term investment than print, email marketing can be very affordable and you can grow your web presence and contacts with a carefully written blog or newsletter (posted on your website, of course)
4. You are open 24/7. This is great news if you are selling a product.
5. You are open to the world. Keep an open mind, you may not be thinking of selling globally but once you launch your website, you will be seen globally.
6. You can showcase your work. Not only can you put your products or services online, you can add client reviews.
7. No limit to creativity through the use of pictures, videos, newsletters, etc.
Cons
1. Time! Be sure you don't spend your time trying to keep up with the Joneses with your web site. Put up a nice site and then go back to the art of doing business, relationships and sales. If you can, let a professional take care of getting your site seen by more people. This is referred to as "SEO" and stands for Search Engine Optimization.
2. Expense. Gauge your needs and finances carefully. Some small businesses tell me they spent thousands of dollars on a web site and now they don't have any money to pay bills, advertise, hire the people they need, buy product, etc.
There are great salespeople out there and they would love to sell you a web site with bells and whistles. Be sure you invest wisely. Ask Alpha Solutions to help design something that stays within your means and still works effectively.
