Small Business Website Design Triage

I have no website, but I know I need one. Why should I pick EM?

There is no reason you NEED to use any company to build your site. Not with the easy platforms that are out there today such as Weebly and Squarespace. The reason you should pick using Edwin Marie, though, is that we are here to tell you that you don't need us while others will try to convince you that they are the perfect choice for your website building needs. 

Building your site does take time and energy which is why we are in business. Many people just don't have that time or energy to spend on something that does not make them immediate revenue. This is why we take payments spread out over time to assist our business owners in using a professional company that focuses on web design without sacrificing their valuable capital.

To break it down a bit more, let's go through a bit of website building triage...

1. How soon do you need a site?

If you need a website within a month or two, then we typically advise going with a pro simply because despite the commercials, websites take time to have proper research, build a draft, refresh the design, and potentially even start all over. We will build your site and have it up and running in a relatively brief amount of time allowing you to focus on generating revenue.

2. How pretty does your site need to be?

If you want a site that makes people think highly of your business, then we are your company. We design and build websites that our clients love and that projects them as a professional option to their customers. This takes time and effort to do correctly, but that's why people choose to go with Edwin Marie.

3. If your site was to crash or get hacked while you were out of the area, what would you do?

Working with a professional company means that you can take a vacation or a night off without worry of fixing a website issue. If you find that peace of mind is important to you, then go with a pro.

4. How comfortable are you with technology?

This is a bit of a toss up as most people are comfortable with basic technology these days which is all you need to make a basic website. However, when you start adding more on to your site including third party apps, it can pay for itself by working with a professional. Furthermore, Edwin Marie includes training on our services so once we set up a feature on your new site, you will know how to work with each application if you so choose.

5. How full is your plate?

If you find that you barely have time to add a workout routine to your day or cook a full meal because you are on the go, then we can honestly say that leaning on Edwin Marie is a good choice. If for no other reason than to say that I know my limitations and what tasks I need help completing.

In summary, building a website can be easy for certain people. Just like gardening, speaking in public, or interior decorating. We all have our strengths. Analyzing who you are and what your comfort level is with web design is the clearest indicator if you should go for building your own site. Easy, right?
