Brisbane Small Business Owners Told Me They Wanted a Website That They Could Update Themselves Without Spending Another Cent.
So I Gave Them That And Then Showed Them How To Use It !
Listen to why this Brisbane based web design company is helping small business owners take control of their online presence and how you can do this too.
Well Of Course You Can Build Your Own Website
I listened.
It wasn’t real hard.
All it took was 2 hours to hear out his story.
Perhaps you’ve heard of him, Frank Noble. (No, he’s not the guy on Facebook !)
Frank was a hard working businessman who wanted to get his business online. He’d been to a few seminars put on by some well known (and perhaps even well respected) web design companies, and was eager to make his online presence a reality.
It was all a bit of a mystery - the more he learnt about it, the more he realised that web design wasn’t something that his 12 year old nephew could whip up like a school assignment, but something that would take a bit of practice and perhaps a quick learning curve.
So he set off, flapping madly to learn about HTML, PHP, Java, Website Hosting, Domain Name management, SEO, Spam Filtering, Online Marketing, Web Design Programs, Add-on Domains, Social Bookmarking, Twitter, FaceBook, Word Press, Joomla, Google Analytics, Google Trends, Google Webmaster Tools, aaarrgh — the list was becoming too long to manage !
After 12 months of reading (into the wee hours of the morning) as much material as he could on the subject he felt he was nearly ready to take control of this “internet thing” that was revolutionising the way people do business.
His first site was, to say the least, admirable. He’d managed to purchase the domain at a bargain 12 months earlier, and his free HMTL Editor had finally produced a somewhat reasonable template about his business.
Frank had put on his contact details with a description of his business, and was now waiting eagerly to make his first sale from his online presence.
Time was ticking away.
After all, this was the new way of doing things, and he wanted to do it right.
He’d checked his mentors notes about sales page design, and on-page optimisation.
He’d checked his search terms.
He’d checked his traffic stats.
~ sigh ~
Frank Did What Most Of Us Would Normally Do
With literally hundreds of hours of learning about the internet, Frank found himself burnt out and frustrated.
In the 12 months, he’d not made one sale, and even worse no one was visiting his website !
Perhaps this website stuff was a load of baloney ?!
He’d become wary of big businesses and their so-called “website development”. Some of his mates were “taken for a ride” for literally tens of thousands of dollars, only to be found on page 49 of Google listings. Their sites looked “pretty enough”, what with all the Animated Flash images and killer graphics. But as impressive as their sites might be, it brought them no extra customers, and it left them a mountain of debt.
And where were these big website development companies when they wanted an explanation of all this ?
Gone. That’s right, gone.
They’d got their cash and were hunting for their next victim desperate small business owner.
“We should have seen it coming,” they confessed to Frank. And Frank could have seen it coming, too.
And you know what - they hate themselves for it.
No-one Really Knew What Was Going On…
And that’s the scary part about getting your small business onto the internet - everyone you talk to will have their own opinion about what you need to do.
Everyone’s an expert.
Everyone’s heard a little from a radio commentary or TV report or magazine article about how to set up a website … but can it bring in real customers and make you more sales without sending you broke, burnt-out or to the funny farm ?
That’s where we step in … Toowong based Sure Fire Web Design, Brisbane.
I’ve heard it all before, and see it all, every day.
And I know that large website corporations could have already hurt you and your business.
Look, if you’re a small business owner that wants to get your business online, I’ve got no doubt that you’re wary of any company that offers to do your website for you. I know first hand that you will want to know up front how much your site will cost, so you can hedge your bets and make sure that you can cut your losses if it looks like it’s not going to work out for you.
And talk about getting ripped off. I’ve heard the worst stories from my friends. We’re talking tens of thousands of dollars here. Have you got ten thousand dollars (or more) to flush down the cyber-toilet ? No I guess not. And neither do I, for that matter. That’s why I’ve taken the extra step to provide you with my iron-clad satisfaction guarantee, which no-one else dares to offer.
But can I really design websites that will meet your need ? Why not check out my portfolio ?
By the time I spend a few hours together developing your site hand in hand, you will have the confidence that your website is going to be more than “fancy digital dust in cyberspace” - that your site will meet all your demands, else your money back. (less the $500 non-refundable deposit.)
I Can’t Force You To Succeed, We’ll Need To Work Together
I guess that’s where I’m different to the rest.
You see, I’m not chasing big business.
I don’t even want to do commerce based websites.
My only focus is to help small businesses succeed by giving you what I know, and teaching you how to use your site.
Now to do this, we’re going to need to spend a little time together. I usually ask you to set aside one night where we can work things through for about 3 hours. This way it doesn’t distract from your business during the day, and that’s in the location of your choice - either at home, at work or at Maccas. 
When I understand what you want, we will form an agreement. I will work towards getting your site produced to the highest quality within our agreed time frame. And you will also be asked to provide information to help build your site as well as a financial arrangement to cement our business partnership.
Of course, you can do this all yourself.
In fact, if you want to attend one of my training courses I can teach you how use your website as a powerful sales tool and improve the leads that you have that come through your site. But if you’re like Frank Noble, (which many small business owners are prone to be…) then you’re going to spend the next 12 months learning everything you need about website design, and the sheer cost of your time is going to eat you up and spit you out !
Do you really want to spend the next 12 months developing a website that isn’t proven to work ?
As I’ve already said, I can’t force you to succeed, that’s totally up to you.
But I’m here, ready to help.
Ready to step in to those who are desperate enough to get their business online today and want to take a shortcut through the learning curve and be handed the system that is going to work from day one. And that’s without having to spend an extra cent to update the pages when I’ve gone. You will have all the tools and procedures to do this yourself, it’s dead easy.
If that’s you, then please contact me right away about your site, your business, and let me know how I may be able to help you further.
But if you’re wanting to do this yourself, then I’m glad you have taken the time to read my message.
See you in 12 months ?
