5 signs your business already needs a website
· Juan Carlos Lacruz
If you identify with three or more of these signs, your business is leaving customers behind for lack of a website.
Not every business needs a website on day one. But there are clear signs that the moment has come. If several ring true, read on.
1. People keep asking you the same thing over and over
Hours, prices, location, services. If you answer the same messages every day, a website answers them for you 24/7.
2. People search you on Google and you don't show up
When someone searches your name or your service in your area and can't find you, that customer goes to whoever does show up.
3. Your competition already has a website and you don't
With equal service, the business with a website conveys more trust. Having no website today subtracts credibility.
4. You depend 100% on one social network
If your only way to get customers is an account you don't control, a ban or an algorithm change can leave you without a business overnight.
5. You want to sell or take bookings online
As soon as you need to charge, book appointments or show a catalog, social media falls short. That's where a website makes the difference.
Identified with three or more? You're probably already late, but you're in time. Let's talk about your website.
