SME website design requires you to work with a partner who understand the benefits and restraints of being a small and medium sized business.
It is no big secret that the vast majority of small-and-medium sized enterprises do not make it in the competitive market which exists in today’s economic climate.
The challenge of combating major established businesses for clients is extremely difficult with often a giant differential in equity to overcome.
Finding and maintaining a strong client base is the be-all and end-all of surviving for your first few years and, hopefully, laying the foundation for a successful business for years to come.
However, as you probably know, this is far easier said than done.
For most businesses we are now competing on a national, even global scale.
Gone are the days that local businesses could rely upon local clients and compete only with their neighbours.
Today business for most SMEs is exclusively procured via the internet, with the value of local trade lower than it ever has been.
This can be daunting and off-putting, even for businesses that have thrived for decades before the beginning of the online era.
SMEs may not use their business for acquiring sales directly, this is particularly the case for companies which produce bespoke, very specific products, that are tailor made for each order.
SME website design done wrong
There are some common pitfalls which will have a direct influence on the success of your online marketing, such as:
- An unprofessional looking website, filled with errors
- Lack of coherent brand identity and design
- Not taking account of your competitors, and reacting accordingly
- Missing key features which todays customer demand and expect
What you want from your website
- An optimised sales funnel, ensuring potential customers are correctly informed prior to initial contact
- Highlight new operations, products and services which are available and advertise these products in advance to ensure marketing campaigns hit the ground running
- Cast light on the principles, values and integrity of your brand
- Increase reputability of your brand relative to your competitors
