Most websites fail. In some industries that relates to millions upon
millions of failed websites, which relates to billions of wasted Rands. This
is a fact, but is it a mystery? Not at all.
The reality is that not every single website on the internet can be a 100%
complete success. By its very nature the internet does not allow for that.
The key therefore is to be that much better than 99% of your opposition.
How? By giving your website the CORRECT attention that it deserves.
Would you delegate the marketing of your brick and mortar business to your
IT company? Would you give your receptionist carte blanche to run your
business? Would you stock your shop and then never open the doors?
The answer to all of these questions has to be a resounding NO ..... yet
this is exactly what businesses do with their websites ... and then complain
that it brings them no new business.
Our website brings in 70% of our total new business! - Your website can do
the same for you.
This course tells you how. More than this, it SHOWS you how and by the end
of this 1 day power-workshop, you will be armed with the tools and knowledge
that you need in order to turn your own website into a genuine
24-hour-a-day, 7-day-a-week salesman.
