Why Use Us?
We can understand what you are talking about when you
say "I'm
not sure if I want to go with computers." Part of our job is to
figure
out if computers will be helpful for you.
Only after all the questions asked have been answered
can
you, the business owner, decide if the system is worth the startup and
ongoing
costs. We're going to try to let you know all the right
questions to ask to get the job complete. We will work with
you to make sure your computer program
choice is an informed choice.
As with any small business, you should check with
references
We'll supply concerning the value of our services.
We can say that we've had great experiences working with
small
businesses in our home towns. Both as vendors and as customers.
Let's keep the ball rolling.
For these services, We're thinking of asking what you
guys
ask
your customers to pay per hour and charging the same rate per hour for
our
services. I'm gonna remember, too, when I eventually ask for your
services
for myself at my home in Middlesex.
Why Get a Web Site?
I (Ed) believe that the time has come for all small
businesses
to evaluate the Internet as another marketing tool to put their wares
in
front of the public (have you seen any kids reading newspapers?) in a
convenient
way. Although there is no formula that can be applied to say
that
$1 spent to put up a web site will bring in $1 of revenue, there is
truth
in the statement that a lot of people use the web to search for
products
and services. I've written a small presentation on putting a
small business on the internet. The presentation can be retrieved
from Small Business Internet
Presentation , If you'd like me to give the presentation
either individually or for a group of small business owners, please ask.
Internet Searching for products and services should show
up
the products and services you are making available to your customers on
your
web site. If someone puts in your business name and Middlesex, NJ
in
their internet search engine, your business should show up and be a
click
away from giving them:
- Your Business Contact Information
- Your Owner Background Information
- An E-Mail request for a call back for potential
services
if you have email
- Your Business' Mission Statement ( What's your
niche?)
- Your Services List which includes any services you
wish
to perform for customers
- Your Statement about what differentiates you from
your
competition
Thanks for staying with me through this presentation of the Mom and
Pops Small Business Services.
We hope that we can assist you in putting together your business
website.
We're asking for retail price of 20.00/hr for developing the web site
+
50.00/yr web hosting until we come to our senses (it's usually 5 hrs of
your and our time for a basic
site). Contact ed@momandpopsshops.com .
Mom and Pops has been running reliably on the www.momandpopsshops.com
server
for about two years now with only one weekend of downtime.
