Cavanaugh's Business Solutions is a business consultant to retail businesses in
Rhode Island, offering Website Design, Marketing, Search Engine Optimization, and Merchant Services. I am committed to creating a unique brand for your company and a total marketing solution for online businesses.
Having been in financial services for over fifteen years, I am knowledgeable about marketing products to customers. My twenty years of writing experience has enabled me to communicate well with customers on paper. My experience in designing signs for businesses has givien me insight into how to attract customers to the retail establishment through color and design.
Credentials
Preparing and implementing the marketing solution requires careful interviewing of the business owner to determine the image he/she wants to project to the marketplace and learning about the products and serices that are offered. My schooling in the Masters of Business program at Liberty University has prepared me to conduct thorough marketing research into the customers' product and target market.
Keeping abreast of industry developments and changes helps me to prepare a marketing plan for the business owner which will make him/her competitive.
Marketing Intent
Your website should communicate your brand in a way which distinguishes your from the competition. Consumers should be able to discern who you are, what your product or service does, and why the consumer should care.
The consumer
develops the knowledge about your company through their thoughts, feelings, images, experiences and beliefs associated with your brand. Therefore, the design and other content should be carefully crafted.
How Customers Find Your Business
Because consumers' shopping habits have changed, it is important to market a retail business online as well as through traditional marketing methods. The Gen X and Gen Y shoppers, those individuals between the ages of 18 and 49, are spending more time on the computer than watching television. They
shop around for products online before they arrive at your store.
A Pleasant Experience
Having grown up with computers, they use it to shop around for products before they enter your store. If you do not have an attractive online presence, you stand to miss out on sales. Even the Baby Boomers and some seniors are shopping around on the internet!
Finally, shoppers
will return to your site and purchase items if it is convenient for them to do so. Studies show that a consumer will tell eleven friends about a pleasant experience with your website, but seventeen friends about a bad experience.
Therefore, it is important to include a shopping cart with credit card processing, which includes acceptance of all of the major credit cards.
If you already have a website, but need to have it updated, I will be happy to discuss a new design with you. Realizing that you may have put significant time and money into its design and implementation, I will make the best recommendation to help you to become more competitive and attract the market that you need in order to sell your products.
