Many company owners in the Spartanburg area wonder, "Do I need a website? I have a small business with a small workforce and we don't sell anything online, we just offer a handful of services."

Yes, the answer is YES! In fact, ESPECIALLY if you are a smaller business.

If you own any business, you should have a website in order to compete with businesses that offer similar services, your competitors who already have one. Only so many people are looking for any given service. Who they find first will get the best shot at taking care of what they need! They may or may not call around and see who else has a better price, so it’s important that you can offer reasonable prices that are in competition with other businesses around Spartanburg. The last thing a good business owner wishes for is to fall behind!

"Doesn't my Facebook page count? I show pictures everyday of our work and happy customers," you may wonder. Businesses frequently rely on Facebook or other social media platforms as their primary advertising outlets and these networks do provide a limited amount of benefits.

For example, they may assist you establish a larger audience, support from family and friends, and even do some local market research. However, though a Facebook business profile is terrific as long as it is effectively used, it should not be used in place of your company's professional website. Here are FOUR
great of the reasons why!

1. Ultimately, you do not have full control over your Facebook page.

What if Facebook decides one day that it will no longer support businesses other than through paid ads? What if the internal systems of Meta become too time consuming and complicated for you as a business owner to be able to keep up with? (Is it already?) If your Facebook page was your only online
presence, and your exposure in front of new paying customers is dependent on their algorithms, all of your clients and followers would certainly dwindle down, impacting your bottom line. In fact, not long ago, Facebook went down internationally, generating a bit of panic among the heavy hitters using Facebook business support and advertising. While it's unlikely that Facebook would cease supporting companies, you have no say in the decisions Facebook makes, and what if you violate their “terms of service” by expressing the wrong opinion…. On a positive note, when you have a website, you have complete control over the design and functions of your website.

2. Facebook Has SEO Restrictions

Consider this. Where do you go when you're looking for a local business? Google or Facebook? The 3.5 billion daily Google searches demonstrate that most people prefer search engines over social networks for information. A local company website helps you to position yourself so that people will discover you
when they search for the items or specific services you offer in the specific area. Even though you can compete with larger websites, a website can be optimized to target local searches in order to acquire a local audience that are looking for YOU and what you can provide!

3. An established website just has more credibility.

A company website is a symbol of trust, and consumers only buy from companies they know, like, and trust. While it may be easier to build a Facebook profile, a company website will allow you to demand greater authority and confidence. Your website content can be made to show you know what you are talking about with your services and skills, and can verify pertinent information to your potential customers, as well as be a source of reference for them.

4. Facebook's attention is fleeting and Facebook is extremely competitive.

Having your business posted on Facebook means you're always up against competition from other businesses. Furthermore, you must compete with your prospective client's Facebook connections. Many individuals find advertising irritating, especially when they want to communicate with friends, therefore they will
disregard your company postings or advertisements. If you fail to set up ads properly, you will often have callers from areas in which it would be unreasonable to try to provide services. Recognizing that social media pages are relevant even with business in today’s world, we do have experts here to help you navigate any social media needs. However it can’t be overlooked that a company website, on the other hand, ensures that you have the entire focus of a potential client. So, while we put in the work to bring them to your website, once they're there, the odds of their patronizing you increase greatly!
We're not suggesting you shouldn't have a Facebook profile for your company. However, your Facebook page and the other social media that you leverage should be an effective supplement, and not replace, your actual business website. We do offer Facebook business page management and packages. You can
see more about that here​.

Having a professional website built helps your reputation, visibility, and lead generating. Because it is your digital property, considered an asset and you have complete control over how it appears and what it promotes and focuses on. It's a great area to showcase good feedback and answer any queries potential clients may have about your company.

1.A truly GREAT website simply brings you new paying clients.

You already have friends and family who care for you and will go out of their way to support you and your business. That in itself is a blessing! However, as wonderful as they all are, can they keep you busy enough to fulfill your desired level of business goals and repeat business often enough to make the impact you need? Not usually, even if they just have the biggest hearts! Though they will encourage you in your venture and patronize your business to carry you through the start up and the tough times (you know there are tough times somewhere along the way!) A well optimized website that is functional in simply getting new money to the bottom line is what will make you thrive and ensure your business sustains you through taking care of not only your business needs, but your family’s needs and desires too. At Carpe DM Products that is our hearts desire, to see family’s win through supporting business owners so that they can go beyond making ends meet for the benefit of their family, and their local community.   

2. A professional appearance is provided by a business website.

Anyone may build a corporate page on Facebook; it's free and easy to do. Because of the low barrier to access, a corporate social media presence loses a lot of credibility. Customers have no idea who is behind a Facebook profile, where they are, or whether it's all just a hoax, scams abound these days on social media. Creating a company website, on the other hand, is not free and suggests that you are serious about your business and services in your area. As a result, having a company website shows off your true business traits and shows buyers that you are more professional, knowledgeable and respectable.

3. It is an important step in your customer's journey.

A functional website is where you want your audience to wind up from various means online. Your website is where you will motivate potential customers to take action. People will scroll past your website unless they come in to see what you really have to offer, so it’s vital that your information is accurate and as complete as possible. So, even if they don't ring you up first time they visit your site, they are likely to return when they are ready to buy. Customers learn about your company through many methods, such as social media feeds. If people find the social feed ad fascinating, they will anticipate to visit your website to learn more about the company. They may not take the next logical step in the customer journey if there is no website.

4. A website boosts your visibility.

There are about 4.5 billion active internet users globally, with mobile devices accounting for more than 90% of them. It is imperative that your website is mobile friendly, here in Spartanburg or elsewhere.
Without a credible website, your company is practically invisible to these paying customers, rest assured they will spend money with their competition. With COVID-19 making the global market even more digital, unless you invest in a website, your company will become invisible to plenty of people looking to spend money with you, well, or the other provider who has a real website.

5. It Is Pretty Much Required for Local Businesses to Build Community Trust

Many small company owners may not recognize the value of investing in a good business website. However, they are indefinitely passing on a fantastic source of revenue that you would not want to miss out on. The following statistics from HubSpot demonstrate the significance of a website for a local business:
Local purpose is included in 46% of Google searches.
Search is used by 97% of users to find local businesses.
After conducting a local search, 28% of consumers purchased an item or a service.
70% of people will visit a physical store based on what they discovered online.
A functional business website will assist you in realizing all of this potential and increasing the profitability of your company.

6. It provides social proof with Google verified real-people

What your consumers say about your company might influence whether or not others patronize you. While review sites like Yelp, BBB, Angi, and Glassdoor are somewhat useful, your website is the greatest way for customers to learn more about your company.
Putting your greatest testimonials on your website is a powerful method to build trust and social proof. Furthermore, posting your finest evaluations on your website guarantees that third-party review services do not downplay the positive things people say about your company. Every customer you take care of around Spartanburg has the potential to go online and do a review for you. Customer satisfaction is really important, and asking them to do a review for you is as well, but you should never ask people who have not paid for your services to do a review for you. (Google now verifies identity and location most of the time).

7. A Business Website Provides Long-Term Value

One of the nicest aspects of investing in a company website is that it continues to provide value to you even years after you've had it developed. When you pay for social media advertising, your potential clients will only see them for as long as you keep them running. If they don't see it, you'll have to pay for the ad campaign again. A company website, on the other hand, will provide you with a ROI over time, and for the long haul. It’s simply as important as the equipment and supplies you use on the job every day on the job site. It’s a necessary investment!
 
8. You Have Total Authority Over Your Website
Unlike social media sites, YOUR website is your property, thus you have complete creative flexibility.
You may post real user reviews, videos, pictures, and anything else you like.
You also don't have to abide by the constantly changing regulations of social media networks. And even if there is a social media blackout, such as when Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp all go offline for a little while, or longer, your website and its content are still out there, marketing for you.

9. Websites Help with Customer Service

An excellent website will show your consumers all of the information they are in seek of while shopping around for your specialty services, including all of your details. As a result, there's no need for them to contact regarding your location, hours of operation, or other easy-peasy inquiries. A website improves the entire customer experience by assisting consumers, at the direction of their fingertips!
Furthermore, because basic client queries don't bog down your own valuable time or the time of your personnel, they may focus on other critical activities that boost daily hands-on work efficiency.

10. A Website Can Help You Beat the Competition

Even as a small Spartanburg business, a successful website enables you to compete with your industry's "big boys." It is feasible to outrank larger websites and have quality leads reach out to you organically from search engines if you play your cards well and have your website properly optimized. It’s for sure they are already looking, but they are finding your competition and spending their money with them, you are truly missing out without a functional website. 
That leaves the question… which website is right for your Spartanburg based business? A custom built website, or a lead generating website? It can be one or both, we provide the best of each, specifically aimed at getting paying customers strait to you for your specific services around the Upstate, and beyond! 

We create basic websites for service based businesses, typically 1-3 pages (or more if asked), including a thank you page after the form is submitted. We finish the site using SEO tactics of the trade, such as trending keywords, backlinks, citations, Google Verification, and so on, and we adjust and modify until it is on page one of Google and Bing! Once the site is ranked on page one, and/or in the map pack on page one, and eventually many slots on page one (dominate! ), visitors will come to the site, producing money-in-hand leads. And, we are exclusive. We only work with one business that specializes in that specific service in the area chosen. Each website has its own unique Spartanburg, SC phone number or any local number in any location, which passes calls to your company number, which is then recorded and entered into our database in real-time, allowing us to measure the amount of leads provided to you each month, tracked month by month, week by week, down by day. And, we email them to you weekly or monthly, depending on your preference! If you've ever paid for leads separately, you're aware that they may range between $20 and $50 per lead. Granted, they can be significantly higher depending on the industry you're in (for example, roofers, builders, and electricians). So, how can we make this ideal for your company? Instead of paying for leads individually, you simply pay a monthly flat charge, based on the actual value we bring to you! In general, service based businesses do far better with our “Lead Gen Website” business model than with a per-lead scenario. The key lies in the SEO process, which is why we are unique; we understand SEO and go above and beyond the standard SEO business, and we ensure we are loyal to you in that as well, regardless if you use our Lead Gen services, or have a website with SEO with us, we only work with one company providing that service in your specified area.
