Is your website driving your business? Or do the results you’re getting fall short of what you need?
Your website should be the engine-room of your organisation, working hard to deliver against your key objectives. What these are will depend on the kind of business you operate. Your focus might be to promote direct sales, generate leads and enquiries, build brand awareness, develop relationships, provide a showcase for products and services. Quite probably, it will be a blend of these things.
Whatever your online goals, if your website isn’t performing, it’s holding your business back and preventing you from achieving your full potential. To be effective, it must first be found by visitors who match your ideal customer profile, then persuade them to take the action you want.
If your website isn’t pulling its weight or you want to get it working even harder, you need to book onto our June webinar, How to Get More from Your Business Website. In this face-to-face event, Ed Hollingshead of Webboutiques will explain how any business owner can boost the effectiveness of their website!

If you own a micro or small business and want to improve the results you get from your website, this webinar is for you. You don’t need to have any technical knowledge; Ed will keep things jargon-free and easy to understand so that the content will be accessible to everyone.
