Detail your company’s unique qualities, i.e., services you offer, products you sell, etc.

Take your brochures, pamphlets, and other materials you handout to your target markets, organize them in the layout you would like for your website.

How was your company created? Why did you choose the company name you chose? Gather all history/background information on how your company came to be.

Most Importanly, keep everything simple and easy to read.

Get involved with your local Chamber of Commerce.

Are you going to be selling products from you website (online shopping or e-commerce)? If so, you may want to think about getting a PayPal account, this will allow you to accept credit card payments without having to go to a bank or monaris, PayPal has all that set up already. (PayPal has a referral program, please let me know if you are interested and I will assist you in getting set up.)

Give all your information that you gathered for your website to your consultant. Together you will create your website, depending on the amount of information you give your consultant, you could have your website up and running in as little as two days.
