If you haven’t taken your business online with a website for your business – even if it’s just a single informational page about your location, hours and services – then you are missing out on an additional stream of potential customers. You may be perfectly satisfied with your current walk-in, repeat or YellowPages clientele – but what happens when they move on?
Whether you believe in the power of an online presence for your business or not, there’s no doubting that having a website for your business is critical in capturing new business. More and more people are growing accustomed to heading to Google or another search engine and searching locally for the products and services they need. For instance – head to Google and search for “<your district/suburb/city> <your product/services>” and see what you find. When we did a local search for “West Point Grey Sushi”, the Gravytrain team’s favourite local sushi place doesn’t show up in the results, because they have no website. If we hadn’t already known it was there, we never would have found it!
Gravytrain will design a unique and appealing website that is custom-tailored to your needs, and is readily upgradable in the future. All of our websites are designed using the WordPress Content Management System, which means that at any time you can easily login and edit the content of your pages.
Gravytrain’s websites also feature the option to have a “weblog” – an online journal where you can post information, news and updates about your business to draw your customers back to your site week after week. If you own a restaurant, perhaps you post coupons or recipes on a weekly basis. Own a flower shop? Post the seasonal “flower of the week” with tips on how to keep your flowers healthy.
Alternately, Gravytrain can design and manage all of this for you so that you’re completely hands off and safe in knowing that anyone searching online for your business will find it.
