Advantages of Having a Web Portal

Your web site can be small and simple or large and loaded with Flash, database-driven content, e-commerce and much more. We'll work with you to design an affordable internet presence that will enhance your bottom line. After all, isn't that the real reason to have a web site?


What a web site can do for you?

Increase your exposure

A web site is a great way to advertise your business to a whole new audience. It's targeted, less expensive than traditional advertising, and allows you to provide a level of detail that simply isn't possible in radio, TV or print advertising. Do you advertise in the Yellow Pages? Take a look at how little information is in the ad and how much it costs you each month. A web site can provide so much information that a prospect will be ready to buy before they ever enter your establishment.


Improve your customer service and communication

Your web site is available to the world 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Sure, that may be more exposure than you really need, but isn't it great to know that your customers and prospects can get information from you at their convenience - anytime! Post answers to frequently asked questions, show detailed product or service information, use an autoresponder to email information to fulfill customer inquiries.


Generate sales leads

Using the internet as a tool to locate qualified prospects and present them with a sales message is one of the best ways to harness the power of the internet. The targeted nature of the world wide web means the people who visit your web site already have an interest in your product or service, so the time-consuming work of pre-qualifying sales leads is automatically done for you.


Get an edge on your competition

There's no doubt about it - accessibility wins business. If your competitors aren't on the net you can increase your advantage by getting there first. If they already have a presence, you'll want a site that's more comprehensive, easier to find and easier to navigate than anything your competitors have.


An alternative to expensive printing

Forget full-color printing. You can display your complete product catalog and all of your company literature on your web site. In fact, we can create universally distributable (Adobe Acrobat) versions of your literature and put them on your web site. Need to make a change to your catalog? Just a quick document change and you're all set - without expensive reprinting. By using an autoresponder, we can even email selected documents in response to online customer requests. That's immediate fulfillment to your customers, and no expense or hassle for you!


A low-overhead electronic store

Add commerce capability to your web site, and your on-line catalog is now your newest retail store. Open all the time and fully automated - all you need to do is collect the money and ship the merchandise. Let your customers shop at their convenience, and watch your business grow.
