The Great Customer Giveaway!

Tuesday, July 12th, 2011

Would you agree 10-15 years ago business’s had a website to legitimize themselves and because it was the “cool” thing to do? In today’s competitive climate shouldn’t your business be online and ranking for the key terms people are searching for and finding your competitors? If you work with a reputable company with a strong concentration in Search Engine Optimization your business can start being found by the customers looking for you and bring more business in your front door.  People are looking for you online, no matter the type of business you have. Occasionally, owners have the misconception you should only have a website if you have goods to sell online or only market your business to Main Street but this idea has proven to be false.

Think about how you yourself search for information. Most people have ditched the phonebooks of yesterday and started with a simple search online to find the number they are looking for to a local restaurant or store.  A poll taken by PollDaddy shows that 20% of people rarely use the phonebook, 76% never use the phone book and 4% definitely using  the phonebook. Also, studies have shown that people thinking about making a purchase on the web 52 times a year, while .2% think about making a purchase using the phonebook.  Many times they are looking for basic information such as hours or services or menus offered. If you have a website to answer some of these basic questions, the need for people to call is minimized and thusly letting you take care of customers walking in the door or providing services.  Are you starting to see the ways marketing has shifted in the last 5 years?  If you have not shifted the way you have always done your marketing, you are risking not being around the next 5 years.
