Brick and motor stores were the traditional way to do business. A new business can exists solely online. You can sell products, give out information, conduct meetings, communicate with clients, and update friends family and associates all online. 
Most customers today search for goods and services exclusively online. They no longer use printed directories or phone books to find a business. When one of your customers has a need, they jump onto their favorite search engine and type in what they want, and the city or community they live in. Then they browse through the listing of websites and call the ones that look promising. They may choose the company with a pretty website, the one with the most informative website, the company with online pricing, the website with great testimonials, or even the website with a blog attached. What they wont do is call a company who doesn’t have a website, because they will not find you.
Usually a client with no existing website asks the following questions
Q. Do i need a website?
Probably. If your business is at capacity, or has a steady stream of new customers due to location, or lack of competition, then maybe you don’t need a website. A website is at it simplest form another form of marketing. You can tell all about your products, services, hours, specials, history, experience, and qualifications. The same stuff you would tell them in person, if they called or stopped into your business. The main difference is, your website works 24/7. It always answers customers, it always gives correct information, it doesn’t take sick days, it never gets tired. For pennies a day, your website works for you, convincing customers you are the right choice for their needs. Show me a salesmen / scheduler / secretary that works 24/7, for pennies a day!
Q. What if my product cant be sold online?
What cant be sold online? Maybe you cant physically PURCHASE it online, but it can most certainly be SOLD online. When was the last time you went car shopping online. Make, model, features, standard options, specials, pictures, store hours, sales persons name. You didn’t buy it online, but you surely shopped for it online. A website that didn’t have all the information you were looking for? You passed it on by. You were looking for the website that could answer all your questions. That was probably the one with the most information. A good website does a lot of the grunt work for your business and product. It gives your customer all of the details you want them to have, that you would probably email / fax / or mail them anyway. It answers tons of questions before you even meet the customer.
