I think you will see that some if not all of these can apply to your company!

1. Having a website can help you generate a professional image-
A professionally designed website is one of the best ways
to instill confidence in new customers who are not familiar
with you company. It gives the impression they are dealing
with a firm they can trust and will generate a sense of respectability.

2. Business Information available -
You are able to communicate address, phone numbers, fax numbers,
hours of operation and clients awareness of special offerings
(i.e. sales, and discontinued items).

3. Your website is the ideal promotional tool which can be updated
at any time -
Unlike the yellow pages you can update your customer offerings at anytime.
Plus it’s cheaper and quicker to update your website than printed materials
such as brochures and flyers!

4. Sell More Products -
Millions of people log on to the internet each and everyday,
creating billions of dollars sold by E Commerce businesses.

5. Provide Research information -
Consumers spend hours of time researching potential businesses,
products and services prior to making an educated purchase.

6. Reach desirable Demographic Markets -
The World Wide Web is arguably the highest mass-market
demographic available. Mostly consisting of college educated
or being college educated consumers making high salaries or
soon to make high salaries.

7. Open International Markets -
With a Web page, you can open up dialogue with international markets as
easily as with the company across the street. Another added benefit is that
they can access your offices information for the price of a local phone call.

8. Create a 24 Hour Service -
Business is worldwide but your office hours aren't. Web pages
serve the client, customer and partner 24 hours a day, seven days
a week. No overtime either.

presentations and still no sales or leads. What went wrong?

non-confrontational way and receive information instantly
