What
are the benefits?
How
much do you spend annually on marketing and advertising your
business?
Are
you still ordering leaflets from your local printers?
Are
you still advertising in the classified section of your local newspaper?
How
much has your business grown as a result of your marketing strategies?
Consider
the following:
It's
cheaper!
For
the same amount that one 4cm2
advertisement in the classified section costs, you can have a whole
"newspaper" promoting your business 24 hours a day, 365 days a
year
While
you are enjoying your nightly sleep or watching the rugby on a Saturday,
your website is hard at work at no cost you to
Once
your website is published, it stays there. You will only be charged
a minimal maintenance fee of R80.00 per hour when you want to change,
delete or add something
It's
convenient!
How
many people today still have time and energy to page through the Yellow
Pages or scour through the newspaper to find your business? A 30
second search on the internet can instantly give your customers what they
need
How
many people today have time to visit your shop in person or call you on
the phone to enquire about a product, service or prices? Your
website can do all that for you!
People
are increasingly moving towards virtual showrooms. In the comfort of
their home, wearing slippers and slurping a mug of coffee, it is possible
to browse a business
Increase
your client base!
Late
at night, when most of us are finally done with our daily duties, you
finally have the time to attend to your shopping needs. The downfall
is that all business are closed by then, so you can't pick up the phone
and enquire about a product or service. When tomorrow morning
arrives, you have other responsibilities to attend to and forget all about
the query you had. With a website you are in a position to allow
your customer to enquire to their heart's content via e-mail or submission
forms
If
you are based in Johannesburg, it is an almost certainty that a customer
in Cape Town won't even know of your existence! A website offers you
global exposure
Changing
your mind is quick and easy!
When
placing an ad in the newspaper or printing leaflets it often happens that
typing errors occur. One wrong digit in your telephone number or one
misspelled word will cost you that potential client. While websites
are created by humans and therefore errors will occur, it is possible to
correct an error in minutes
When
you receive new products, it is easy and quick to update your website, as
opposed to retracting your ad from the newspaper
Free
up your time!
A
website offers you the opportunity to answer those questions that your
customers repeatedly ask. While spending 10 minutes on the phone
answering mundane questions, you are probably losing two customers who
stop calling because your line is engaged
