Your website should make the same first impression as your office or storeJanuary 22nd, 2013

It always amazes me that people who have impressive offices or stores have fugly websites. Sometimes people can see the value of making a good impression, yet their online look is downright ugly, broken and outdated. It is like wearing your Armani suit with holey socks.

Take the photo below, it is of a law office (hopefully long closed).  Do you think you would have this attorney under retainer? I don’t care if Perry Mason or Clarence Darrow is working there, you ain’t going in.

Well it is the same with your website, if your website is an online version of the above photo, you not only won’t be getting new business, you are actually driving business to your competition.

Now does that mean you need to sell your Aston Martin DB9 to afford a nice website?  Absolutely not. You can build a professional website that lets you compete with the big boys at a reasonable cost. Start small, and add to your website. Keep it fresh with relevant content, and before long you will have a smart looking interface, that drives business and fares well in search engines.

Most of all, you have a website you will be proud of, the same as your office or storefront. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us, we are glad to answer them.
