Does my business need a web site?

How will I benefit from being online?
Most importantly, it will benefit your customers, both current and potential. They'll easily access information about you and your company and learn more about your products and services, news or any information you wish to convey. It's done in an interactive environment traditionally unaffordable in other advertising mediums. You may see savings in.. phone & fax charges, paper, mailing & printing costs and more. This and increased exposure should impact your bottom line. An attractive web site is another front door to your company.
Does the web site replace my current advertising?
No, Web sites are great advertising tools but should not replace your regular advertising. In fact, quite to the contrary. You should use current ads to drive traffic to your site where you can offer an expanded message. It has plenty of space with the advantages of color, sound and more. Your site is working for you 24/7.
