Welcome to Digital Basics
Making digital easier for small business
Welcome to your BS-free zone for digital.
Thinking about getting a business website? Or maybe you’ve got one but it’s looking a bit outdated - like that site your niece’s-cousin’s-best friend made years ago. Maybe you’re still even rocking an old email address like wazzzza69@hotmail.com (you know who you are).
Here’s the deal. More than 80% of people start their search for a product or service online - even if they plan to buy in-store. That means having an up-to-date business website isn’t a “nice to have”’ it’s essential. Think of it as your business storefront.
If you’re not sure where to start, don’t stress. It’s easy to get overwhelmed by talk of platforms, SEO, paid ads and everything else. But before diving into all that, you need to get the basics right.
That’s where Digital Basics comes in. We focus on the 3 essentials every business needs to thrive online - no jargon, no fluff and focus on the essentials your business needs to shine online
The Top 3 Digital Basics
-
1. Set up a website & professional email
Your website is the online door to your business so it needs to look sharp and easy to get around. Visitors have to be able to find the information they need fast. And don’t forget your email address! It has to be just as professional as your website. No Gmail or Bigpond or anything else.
-
2. Get your business found on Google Maps
Google is the world’s go-to search engine, and it’s a big deal when it comes to helping your business get found online. Starting with the basics, you need a Google business profile and maps listing. These two essentials put your business on the digital map - literally - making it easier for customers to find you.
-
3. Build a customer database
Building your own customer email database is hands-down one of the best and cheapest ways to market your business. If you’re not collecting emails from customers and interested people, you’re leaving future sales and leads on the table. Don’t miss out - start building those connections now.
A website doesn’t have to cost $1000s.
As a business owner, we know you’ve got a lot on your plate. You can’t do it all yourself and why would you want to? You’re the expert in YOUR business, not everything little thing that goes into running it. When it comes to the digital world, you know it’s important to be part of it, but you might not be sure how to make it all work.
That’s where Digital Basics come in. We help you lay the foundation for your online presence and can handle it all for you.
Oh - and did we mention? It’s affordable.
You don’t have to do it all.
