Benefits
The benefits of having a website will not guarantee profits
or increased sales or customer loyalty alone. Having a website
must be seen as a companion to a businesses' existing marketing
strategy. For example, a company should print the website address
and email address on their existing printed medium so customers
know that your company has a website to find more information.
Communicate using email
Using email, you can communicate quicker, cheaper and conveniently
with your existing and potential customers. Many companies don't
realise that it is relatively simple to setup a company email
address like 'info@yourcompany.com' rather than using 'joebloggs@aol.com'
which looks unprofessional.
Build relationships with customers
Use your website to let your customers browse your inventory,
look at the latest prices and place orders 24 hours a day, 7
days a week, automatically - wherever they are in the world.
For example, your business may be closed on Sunday's but a website
will allow you to continue receiving sales by email or an online
ordering system.
Cost Savings
Save on printing materials and postage by showing your products
and services on a professional website. Create a distribution
list to send email newsletters to your customers rather than
posting printed brochures.
Quick updates
Let your customers know of any updates on your website quickly
and easily. For example, telling customers about special offers
or promotions, vacant rooms or closed footpaths/country roads.
This form of online communication builds a rapport and trust
with your customers creating repeat business with them.
