Samarind gave tips on how to get the most out of a website at an IT Day organised as part of Flintshire County Council’s first Business Week.
‘Invest in the Web’ was the name of a seminar presented by Senior Web Developer Matt Worrall and Software Sales Consultant Phil Turner at Theatr Clwyd in Mold. ‘Invest in the Web’ was aimed at those businesses without a website and those who had a website but were not maximising its potential as a marketing tool.
Matt and Phil highlighted the operational and financial benefits presented by a website that provides more than simple static content, that is to say a brochure site based on a stock template. They demonstrated how a professionally developed website can create new commercial opportunities for any businesses, regardless of its size.
In addition, ‘Invest in the Web’ showed how the web can help companies manage enquiries and other business-related transactions, while reducing costs, through the use of automated processes both in and out of business hours.
Later Phil joined Networks Sales Consultant Carly McKay on the Samarind exhibition stand during the IT day. A free prize draw resulted in Nathan Caley, IT manager with Mold-based West Coast Energy, winning a free iPaq 500 Series voice messenger and mini-handheld PC, worth £199.
‘It was great to represent Flintshire at the Theatr Clwyd event,’ said Carly. ‘It certainly raised awareness for local businesses and the information given by the key- note speakers was inspiring.
‘It was a great event and we’re already looking forward to Flintshire Business Week 2008!’
