SUBJECT: Report on Professional Business Websites

DATE: February 9, 2014

I have conducted a study of the many benefits of how a company can profit from owning a professional business website. The following report will hopefully persuade you to move forward with hiring an outside, third-party, business to handle our needs.

With a professional business website setup for ABC, Inc. we will start to see a tremendous growth in sales from both our current customers as well as from a new clientele base. Our competitors already have a solid website offering for their business and with this we have seen a slight decline in sales. If we were to keep moving in the direction that we currently are, this decline is sure to become more aggressive. This is not something that we want for ABC, Inc.

Not only will a professional website have us running along the leaders of the automotive industry in the eyes of the customers, but it will also offer us new options to save money. With a professional business website we would be able to limit the amount of printed items that we send out to our customers due to us being able to upload them to our website. This would also help to lower our environmental footprint by reducing our paper-waste.

This report was done on my own time without the company offering me any benefits or help. However, I had an enjoyable time researching this topic and hope that you have the same enjoyment from reading it! It is truly amazing how much a business is able to benefit from just having a professional business website!
