your organization 24 hours a day,
7 days a week, every day of the
year to the whole world. Nothing
else offers this flexibility.

of information, available anytime
to anyone with Internet access.

reputation, credibility and trust
with potential clients

to display your previous work
and accomplishments to potential
clients. The use of testimonials
is a valuable selling key.

Capture
a completely new audience

to search for a company on the
Internet rather than search their
local Yellow Pages. To many, a
business that is not on the Internet,
for all intents and purposes,
simply doesn't exist.

improve your competitive advantage
Everyday more and more people
are going online to shop for information,
services and products. On a computer
screen, all companies play by
the same rules. No matter what
your size, a website offers your
business the same advantages as
your biggest competitors. Small
businesses (even a one man operation)
with a well designed website can
have the same presence as a multinational
corporation.

expense of total reproduction.
Compare the cost of advertising
campaigns in newspaper, on radio
or television (which is only available
for a limited time) or the cost
of printing and distribution catalogues
versus the cost of having a website,
which is available 24 hours a
day. Your customers can have the
current information or price list
for your goods or services at
any time, just by looking at the
relevant page on your website.
