Help for Small Businesses and Start Ups

Starting up a business is not easy and we know this. As a young company ourselves we are keen to get alongside other businesses and give them whatever help we can to get them online.

A website alone is unlikely to answer all your needs or bring in a lot of business unless it is coordinated with other media. If you include your web address on your stationary, in your advertising and have your site made professionally, however, it could capture your customer's attention.

All kinds of businesses have websites these days: florists, fishmongers, insurance brokers, car rental companies, letting agencies and perhaps even newsagents in the near future. And why not? It is another way of communicating with your clients, it is a way that your clients can communicate with you and it is even a way to sell your produce.

When you do set up a site, make sure that it is easy to update your content. All too many sites have content that is really out of date because the staff just don't know how to update it. We create systems that allow you to update your site about as simply as you might send an email using Hotmail. For a small fee we can also be called on demand to update your site at any time.

We would like to encourage small businesses and in particular start ups to have a site set up. We don't charge by the page, because we believe it is better to spread your information out, rather than clutter it all together to save a few quid. We also offer a 10% discount* to all companies that have been in business for less than 12 months and a 5% discount* to all small businesses, those who employ 25 people or less -though we may give you some leaway if you are just a few people over!

We would like to wish your business all the best for the future and do hope you give us a call on 07817 851856 in the near future. Even if you just want some advice on your current site, please drop me a line at david.burton@doivedesigns.co.uk. Dave will be happy to help.

*Discounts available on request.
