You may be wondering... "How Can The Internet Help My Local Business In Kalamunda Which Has Mostly Local Customers?"
This is What A Local Business Owner Said
This is her Kalamundaweb.com listing
Up until recently, you would have been right thinking that the Internet offered few opportunities for a small, local business such as yours.
But times change fast online!
Now, more and more of your potential customers are forsaking the Yellow Pages for Google, Yahoo, and other top search engines.
The fact of the matter is that it's faster and easier to type something like "Kalamunda Plumber" or "Byford Plumber" on a web browser than it is to look it up in the phone book!
Here are a few of the reasons that small, local businesses are getting online every day...
Raising their local profile above their competitors.
Strengthening relationships with existing customers by providing valuable information online.
Staying on customer's minds with things like website-only coupons.
Taking competitors' customers with local online promotions.
Translation: If your business does not use the Internet to promote itself; extend its reach beyond your local area; keep in touch with its existing customers; and take your competitors' customers... Your competitors will do it to you, and soon.
"But wait a minute," you say, "I already have a Yellow Page ad. Isn't that enough?"
Sadly, no. Let's compare a Yellow Page ad with having your own website on Kalamundaweb.com.au...
Yellow Pages
Your Kalamundaweb.com.au Website
Content
How much can you say in a tiny little ad? And forget trying to update your content during the year!
Show off your local business to its best advantage. Put whatever you want on your web page. Plus, minor updates are no problem.
Visitor attention
Very little -- most people just scan the listings
Complete -- once your prospective customer is on your website, you have all of his/her attention.
Visitor mindset
Dubious -- Yellow Pages is advertising. Your credibility is low.
Interested -- they found you through a search engine. Your site adds to your credibility.
Exposure
Not much -- it may generate a few calls now and then.
Substantial -- Over time, you can attract hundreds of visitors to your site every single day.
Measurable
No -- You really have no way of knowing how effective your ad is.
Yes -- It is possible to know precisely how many visitors you had to your website, where they came from, how long they stayed, and much more.
Competitive advantage
Low -- Don't all businesses do this? Do you really stand out?
High -- your website can help build your business and drive the competition's customers to you.
Open new markets
No -- Yellow Page ads are local.
Yes -- The Internet is worldwide.
Cost
Expensive -- Typically costs several thousands of dollars per year, per listing, for each small ad.
Inexpensive -- Costs way less than a Yellow Page ad. (more on this below).
Hi, We're George & Sarah Slater, Owners of Kalamundaweb.com.au.
For the past 13 years, we've been involved in many aspects of the Internet. We had are first website up and running selling software back in 1995! That was a long time ago!
George's personal Internet marketing portfolio includes literally dozens of websites which are monetized to include selling products and advertising space to major corporations (including Google, Inc.).
He's consulted with many small business owners on how to best market their businesses on the Internet.

But you needn't worry if you are somewhat computer-phobic... we will take care of it all for you.
And guess what? You don't even need a computer!
When you take advantage of this unique service, you get all this:
A one-page webpage designed specifically for your business.
You can include pictures of your products along with prices and any specials you want to advertise. For example, you could showcase your products and services on your webpage so that customers can view them anytime and then contact YOU when they are ready to spen dmoney with you!
Unlike a printed Yellow Pages ad, there is practically no limit to the amount of information you can include on your web page... and it is available for your customers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Your own private URL (a.k.a. website address).
Your own Internet address with Kalamundaweb.com.au, such as Kalamundaweb.com.au/YourCompanyName. (If you already have a website, this can be used to send visitors directly to your main website.)
This is great... You can put your website address on your business cards, classified ads, and more. Keep customers informed of business hours, new product lines, special offers, and more.
Your website hosted on the Kalamundaweb.com.auserver.

Your web page submitted to the major search engines.
The number of website visitors you get can't be guaranteed, but most clients can expect to see their web page show up in search results for Google and Yahoo within a few weeks!
How Much Does It Cost To Advertise On Kalamundaweb.com.au ?
First let's take a look at how much it would cost to do all of this on your own:
Web Hosting $240/yr
Domain Name $18/yr
Web Page Design $1500 - A very conservative figure!
TOTAL $1,758 < -- You don't have to pay that!
As you can see, it would take nearly $1,760 to do this yourself (provided you have the time and "know how" to do it.)

You'll be saving over $1,450 by letting me do it for you! (Plus, don't forget... this is most likely a tax-deductible expense.)

To sum this all up... everyday local businesses are catching on to the 'Net, and more and more consumers find the Yellow Pages too inconvenient and limiting. It's so much easier just to "Google" what they are looking for.
I strongly encourage you to get your business online before your competitors do.
