Got my mojo
« on: December 01, 2012, 07:39:16 pm »
Hi Guys

Not been on here for over a year now, I lost all interest in the running of my business mainly down to relationship breakdown, wasnt to bothered about picking up new work so didnt put to much into getting new work, i.e advertising, canvassing, let the website go down after microsoft stopped there free sites so didnt bother setting up a new one, got rid of the lad who worked for me but never replaced him, but now ive seriously got my mojo back mainly because a window cleaner has returned after leaving the area for 3 years and is using the same name as me so im starting to want to push on with the business now,got a new lad starting next week, got ads going in a few local magazines and other stuff going on which i wont share on here as im sure my competitors are still on here, and want to get a new website up and running.

is it worth getting a site made by a web designer this time or is there a free site people are now using now.

Welcome back Chris :)

Answer to your question, i would not go down the free route of a site I still stick with what I said over two years ago.
It makes you looked bad and free sites normally have a cost attached somewhere

Glad to hear you got your mojo back :)

A good website is essential to business IMO - - I have seen diy websites built in free hosting that look fantastic & bring in work,.. but more often than not a pro site will perform much better & repay the initial investment very quickly.

Drop me an e-mail if you want - I'd love to build a site for you, but if you'd prefer to try a free one I'd still be more than happy to give any advice & help I can.  ;D
