Why
Should My Business Be On The Internet?
There
are several reasons why you might want your business on the web......
-
Unless
you have been living in a cave, you know that a home
computer is fast becoming a regular household item,
the number of homes with P.C's has now doubled. Home computers
are being installed by the hundreds every day, all over the
world. "Look it up on the web" is becoming an often
used phrase.
- Every
year, the amount of shopping on the internet increases, and
more and more businesses are doing their major sales this
way. Over $161 million worth of goods & services were
sold over the internet last year in Australia alone!
- If
you have a retail outlet or market stall your sales &
promotions are generally limited to your area. On the internet,
you can sell to people all over the world, not just your town
or region, and you don't even need to be there to complete
the sale!
- Locally,
more and more people every day decide who they are going to
call for a service by checking the business out on the internet.
The yellow pages only hold so much information. A website can
hold pages and pages of information and selling techniques.
- Rather
than get on the telephone and call all the businesses
about their service and prices, people will look up the business
on the internet. By viewing a web page, a potential customer
can learn more about the business, the service, the product,
and the owner and decide if that business suits their needs.
- With
a web page, you can say everything you always wished you
could. For instance, a tourist resort can promote their beautiful
location, quality service and caring staff with the right words
and pictures. A picture of happy guests, beautiful scenery
and well presented accomodation and dining can say so
much.
- An
On line Order/Booking or Enquiry Forms can sometimes generate
more enquiries than customers who walk through your front door!
You can also be specific with the information you request
from people completing the form. This information can
be very useful in building client databases.
- Your
Web Page is always opened for business even if you are not!
- In
the business world, being on the internet is part of being
competitive and most importantly, it provides an easy way for
potential clients to contact you. All businesses have to keep
up as over and over, you will have people ask you, "so, what's
your web address?", "Can you Email me the details?"
