Getting your business online!

15th April 2015 :: Author: Andrew Cope, Managing Director, Evergreen

What do you know about getting your business online? You may have noticed that copies of the good old Yellow Pages are getting thinner and thinner.

In fact the chances are that if you ask someone of school age what “Yellow Pages” is, the chances are they won’t even know.  The simple reason for this is the internet.  When you require a product or service you simply type a few words into your favourite search engine and away you go. 

Your choice of supplier can be determined by several factors; location, the look and feel of a website or online reviews, ratings and feedback.  Whatever your selection criteria, there is no doubt that the internet has opened up a whole host of new opportunities.

New businesses are twice as likely to achieve the growth that they would like to if they have an online presence.  The Government has certainly recognised this fact and according to recent figures that they have distributed, 57% of the population is uncomfortable about using a company that they cannot find online.

By having a website your company is open for business 24/7 with new clients being able to research you and your services at a time convenient to them, which builds trust and credibility.

To help new companies take steps in the right direction when it comes to all things internet, the Government has launched a campaign which you can find further details on by clicking here.

Google now processes 40,000 search queries per second.  Now just imagine how many of those searches could be relevant to your business and what you could be missing out on by not having an up to date website.

The economy is growing and you need to harness all the tools at your disposition to make sure that your business wins its share of clients.

At Evergreen, we don’t have a crystal ball but we can ensure that your website will stand you in good stead for the future and can evolve with your business.  We can also keep you on top of your game making sure that you have the opportunity to make the best of new developments as they arise.
