			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">How well is your business performing on the Internet? BT Business has revealed some worrying statistics about the poor quality of small business websites. With the potential of 25% of retail spending being conducted on the Internet this year only 1 in 3,000 small firms utilise key-words to optimise their websites.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-8" title="daily mail article" src="http://bizwebsolutions.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/daily-mail-article.jpg" alt="daily mail article" width="500" height="581" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">This is like having a shop on the high street and camouflaging it, so that your potential customers find it hard to find. Ten per cent of small businesses don&#8217;t even like their own websites.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong><em>If you enter your own business premises and don&#8217;t like them, what makes you think your customers will? </em></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Does that sound like a good way to conduct business? I think you&#8217;d quickly change your customer facing image &#8211; and yet people don&#8217;t want to do that on their own website. If you want to find out more about how your website can work for you, come and speak to us here at Biz Web Solutions and start increasing your performance by having a sensible Internet strategy.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are many ways to advertise your business, most<a href="http://bizwebsolutions.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/bizwebsolutions-email2.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-663" title="bizwebsolutions email2" src="http://bizwebsolutions.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/bizwebsolutions-email2-300x210.jpg" alt="bizwebsolutions email2" width="300" height="210" /></a> are very hit and miss, making it difficult to know if a marketing or advertising campaign has been fully effective. Often you pay out large sums of money without the real knowledge of your true ROI (return on investment). After all none of us want to throw money away, especially in today&#8217;s financial climate.</p>
<p>There have been many studies over the last few years about how effective email marketing is. Some have been very optimistic and others have sounded its death knell. The thing is with email marketing or direct response marketing as it is often called, is if it is done well and ethically it can have a dramatic effect on the profits a business can make.</p>
<p>It is now recognised that email marketing works and it works well. It is inexpensive and can be laser targeted to your potential and current customers.</p>
<p>Social media plays a great part in all that we do on the internet, this applies whether you are in business or not. After all if something goes really well for you why not post it on your Facebook or Twitter account and let everyone know. Equally if something goes bad that negative message can rocket around the WORLD in mere seconds.</p>
<p>Online selling and marketing is all about building a rapport with your customers. The heavy duty pressure tactics no longer work and not only could you lose them, but they tell all their friends online as well.</p>
<p>We have a solution for small businesses that will help your customers get the message and it is about building up trust with them.</p>
<p>More to come very shortly&#8230; In the meantime please go and download the free report we have written all about direct response email.</p>
