Title: Website, is it worth having?
Post by: Trotsky on December 01, 2008, 10:17:20 pm
I am just a one man operation, not planning any serious growth!

I like the idea of a website but just how useful would it be?

People I know who have one, seem to spend good money on them, only to let them go, i.e not update them regularly

In most cases it seems to be just a Public Relations exercise!
(Done for the "Feel Good" factor!)

Comments please!  :-\

A decent window cleaning website doesn't have cost much at all and it will at the very least help to separate you from the cowboys.

A bad one can do you a lot of damage though. It's really your shop window to the world and I bet a lot get more work from them than they realise.

I paid for mine through work within works and now have a few repeat jobs which pay me every month :) when i email custys information i put a link to it too and i think it helps them build up a picture of you and trust that you are legit, also i stick website on leaflets and alot email through site rather than ring :)
