Your customers want to trust the company they choose and Talk Is Cheap!
Take advantage of the tools available to you and stop losing customers.

The fact is that if many of us knew how many potential customers DID NOT call us after looking at our online presentation
we would not be so confident.

Your business serves mainly 1 time customers in the residential field. The ABIA feels it is important to highlight some companies who are thriving in our current economy. They thrive because they adapt and recognize the changes in our industry and customer shopping and buying habits. People are using the internet to find companies and advertising and promoting your company is the one and only thing other than word of mouth that will bring you the business that can sustain operations through difficult times.

Below are a few examples of what customers find online when shopping for pool tables or service. These companies take full advantage of every method of creating credibility for their businesses immediately because they know there might not be a chance to tell them all about their business over the phone, if a customer does not call they probably will not know anything about your experience unless you build this trust with them online. First impressions are the most important in a customers eyes and it is important for us all to build that confidence and trust as soon as they come into contact with our businesses's. Check out some of the ideas these companies have used to make best use of the tools they have to bring a customer into their businesses.


Craigslist
Examples of CL ads. Let's face it, we all tell our customers we are better than our competitors because that is what business is about but that's what we are all told when we are shopping also and we know it's not enough to tell our potential customers how good we are. Even though it might make us feel good, they hear it from everyone so use your ads like these companies to build instant credibility using the ABIA and other affiliations to show your customers you not only talk like you are serious but you participate in your industry also.
