Do You Understand Web Speak?
Don’t be discouraged! There are still thousands of businesses out there with no web presence, so if you at least have a website, you are above the curve. Now do you post content monthly? You’re way above the curve…Weekly? Well done! Daily updates and corrections and new content? Well that’s just stellar and on par with multi national corporations.
Blah blah blah
Understanding the language of the web can be difficult for the average small business owner…Domains, hosting, SSLs, Email, POP3, IMAP, Webmail, Ecommerce, Plugins, Widgets, etc. etc. Those corporations all have a staff that takes care of all of this. Small business owners often don’t have that luxury.
Build Your Business
The truth is, the best thing a small business owner can do is concentrate on building the business. Managing operations, finding new clients and taking care of existing ones. It’s really not your responsibility to worry about the minutia of website terms and making them all work and communicate with each other properly.
Fear Of Getting Burned
That’s where decisions become critical for you. The decision to contract out your website management or keep it in house…I’ve seen it a bunch…small business contracts out the website management to a freelancer or another small website business, then the management company screws things up or generally doesn’t do what they’ve promised all the while charging exorbitant prices. The business owner is left burned. Unsure if contracting their web management was the best decision. OR the small business hires a website manager in house who has “some web experience.” they mismanage the site or they are college kids who are never in the office and always calling off and basically behaving unprofessionally.
I Get It!
But, the issue still remains. If the website itself is not growing and being updated regularly to compete in the market, it is basically doing you no more good than a listing in the outdated yellow pages.
The Pitch
That’s where I come in. I’ve managed multiple thriving businesses and their web presence as well as new businesses who need to get started. One of my most successful clients was able to generate up to $100,000 per quarter in revenue just from the website that I built for them. Thus, enabling them to sell their business and make a huge profit and retire early. Not all businesses are designed and set up for that though. Every business is different. However, having a professional in your corner to help you navigate the web language and deal with all failures and successes that your website generates is a major benefit to a small business.
Yeah, but what does all that cost?
What is a high functioning website worth to your business? Is it worth $100,000 per quarter in revenue? Is it less? Does it just need to pay for itself? Or, does it just need to be a footprint online allowing you to cast your business net over your market? All of those answers are correct and depend on your business. The absolute worst you can do is have a functioning website that provides information to your existing and potential customers. Are you prepared?

My contracts for website management are based on your business and on what your individual business needs. Do you want to grow or are you just providing information?
