I own a couple businesses, and one which is a niche construction business is taking off. As in it is growing so fast I may need to actually hire full time employees… which I also dread.
Yesterday, I received two phone calls and both asked if I had a website. To keep costs down, I have not had a website built, but I guess that needs to change. On the other businesses, the websites are built but no one looks at them from the monthly emails I get on who has been to my site. Now, people are looking for this business.
For those who understand, I’m in that growing stage where I need to spend money to grow, but I don’t want to risk the spending in case something may happen. Websites, needing to upgrade my business apps, ordering large amounts of supplies and employees.
I guess I’m just taken aback by how odd people have been due to a lack of websites when I have never had anyone really look before. Which now I’m up at the witching hour doing estimates, invoices, and now checking on at least a static website maker.
I have heard of GitHub, but does anyone recommend any other static website making types? Any help would be appreciated.
You are talking about something entirely different than a website.
You are talking about a single landing page that collects data from ad spend, which is just a single page of a “good website”. Your single page consultation request form doesn’t feed itself, it’s fed by $ ad spend. $500 for a single client in fact as per your 10% CPA number.
Average wage of a divorce attorney in the United States is $130k, let’s assume you are in that average. You are servicing about 30 clients per year with a $500 CPA you are spending $15,000 on your “landing page” when you could get better results from a good website total cost $3,500.
You’re making an awful lot of assumptions. We’re way ahead of 30 a year and we’re a team of people, not a solo attorney.
