Lead Captured Now Where's the Delivery!

Okay, I see a lot of great business people and entrepreneurs going at it often from day to day.  One thing which hit me in the face recently was there are some really top sales people in a whole of areas.  This goes beyond sales and there are some really good business people period. 

The thing I'm blogging about right now here today is "where is the delivery."  We are no doubt in an information age and things are moving fast. 

Granted there are some businesses really good at capturing the consumer to get them interested in the goods or services they have to offer.  One thing I see some businesses fail at miserably is the delivery.  Once you get a lead what do you do to deliver?

If you are in a business where the competition has become fierce online and you are still using pen and paper methods how do you compete?  A long sentence.  Yes.

What are you doing to keep your skills up to date.  Well I hope one thing you plan to do if you are in the Hampton Roads area is attend some of the business sessions I plan to set up. 

One thing I don't mind doing is giving back and giving advice to people who struggle with the bare basics of getting an online presence.  One thing I realize more and more with all the different business people I ever have the pleasure to interact with is that your website is like having your business card online.  If you don't have at least a business card online that you are comfortable with referring people too you are missing out.

One web page can get you more than you think if constructed well.  There are so many sites offering free hosting when you purchase a domain and others sites where you can bring a domain you already have.

My goal over the next couple of months is reaching out and helping some small businesses at least set up a business card online.  At bare minimum have the name of their business, what they do, and somewhere once they capture a business prospect the business prospect can go look at something tangible. 

Check back often and I hope you like what I plan to do and if I can be of any assistance to you or your business in at least getting a basic business profile online let me know. 

For the do it yourself type people check out my website at www.Websites4Sell.com and if you are not very computer literate and want to utilize the services of someone who wants to assist you with your business success at a reasonable price for website presence check me out at www.Web-Styles.com or call me direct at (757) 542-5108.  I look forward to the opportunity to work with you.

Don't just think capturing leads, think delivering the best customer experience ever once the lead is captured.  Above all have a place where people can visit you from the convenience of their own home any time.
