Read more on "The Benefits of Getting Online" »It’s a pretty well known fact that the internet is the biggest market place in the world & the best marketing tool available for most businesses. Try to think of one successful business without a website? Perhaps an even better test is to try & think of how many people you know that don’t use the internet to find goods & services, chances are not too many!
The internet works, it doesn’t matter if your clients are around the corner or in another country.
TypeShape’s clients range from sole tradespeople to multinational corporations that employ thousands of people. Naturally the solution changes to best fit, but the core benefits remain the same! The beauty of the internet is that it can help every business grow, building new clients & new revenue.
Bang for your Buck
TypeShapes websites often cost less than an advertisement in a local newspaper. A newspaper is lucky to last a week & be read more than once, a website lasts a life time! Add your website address on you business card & you have effectively given a client your businesses best bits.
Build your business name & brand
The web is open 24 / 7. When your sleeping, out at dinner or even busy with a customer and can’t answer your phone, you can be sure your website is working hard marketing your business, selling your products & services. How many potential customers would look for your goods & services when they get home from work, when you’ve hopefully knocked off for the day?
Minimise your support time
Even if you have a successful business & you are not looking for new clients, imagine the time you could save by answering your most commonly asked question on your website, over & over again!
Keep in contact with your clients
Chances are you already have a great customer base, but it’s not common practice to call them up & remind them your still around when you need business. A simple email newsletter can keep you in contact & inform your clients about your industry & business happenings. Just to think, you’re reading one of these newsletters right now.
Understand your clients
TypeShape can set your website up to provide easy to understand reports. See what your website visitors are looking at most, how much time they spend on a page, even what they type into their search engine to find you! No other medium can provide this invaluable feedback.
Your website grows with you
TypeShape understands that sometimes you need to start small and grow your website as your business grows. With TypeShape you don’t pay for anything you don’t need, our solutions are completely scalable.
Your website is dynamic & green
TypeShapes only provides websites that you can update yourself & it’s amazingly easy to use, some clients say it’s easier than Microsoft word! We also provide great training with all of our websites to ensure you’re in control. Changing a newspaper advertisement is impossible! You can also host your brochures on your website or send email newsletters, saving costs & resources.
