Small Biz Gazette - April 2017 - Vol VII
Hey


April's Showers bring Ca$h Crops!

We have just completed the 1st quarter of 2017! Time is flying by, and projects you wanted to complete by now may be on the back burner. The biggest challenge I face when first working with a Strategic Partner is getting STARTED!  In the business world of small biz websites, the owner thinks he or she knows how to build a new custom site; however, they soon find out that innovations happen DAILY on the web - it is IMPOSSIBLE to keep up if you ALSO HAVE TO RUN a plumbing shop, a restaurant, a doctor's office, just to name a few! 
You see, most people's interaction with a website is done from the END-USER's perspective. This means that the small business employees (the ones usually tasked with the daily management of the site) website knowledge is limited to the navigation and the consumption of content - not the creation of content. Therefore, you run into challenges because you have to know HOW to deliver content to YOUR market.  
 
Below is a video from Matt Cutts. Matt no longer works for Google but he is a foremost expert on SEO. The principles he cites still stand today. CONTENT IS KING!  This is important as Google is the biggest search engine on planet Earth.  If Google thinks your website is weak and you are NOT paying them any $$'s - you will get no traffic to your site. 
​​​​​​​
 
These are some of the reasons we develop Responsive Business Websites for the entrepreneur and small business owner. In the month of April 2017, we have a killer offer on a custom WordPress website. Buy one and get one 1/2 off! 
Yes, you heard right! When you purchase our Basic Package @ $1,500.00, you can own an additional site for $750.00!! If you have two companies, this is a GREAT way to kick-start your new websites. Or, if you have a friend that needs a new website, you can split the costs and still save about 33% off each site! 
 
A functioning business website is CRITICAL to success and the GROWTH of a business. Having a partner that has a track record of successfully executing websites is the FINAL crucial piece for you to take control of your site and turn it into a money-making part of the business. Now is the time to START! 

Buy one and Get one 1/2 off!  Contact us today to set up a consultation. We look forward to adding YOU to our West Bay Media Group Family! 
OFFER GOOD TILL APRIL 30th 2017
