Websites for local businesses
Websites for local businesses that fill the diary
Fill the diary and drive footfall without paying per booking. Booking-led and occasion-led work, shown off and easy to choose, on a site you own.
Why it matters
The booking platforms and the delivery apps take a cut of every customer and keep the relationship. Your own site fills the same diary and the same tables, and the customer, and their details, are yours.
The booking platforms and the delivery apps take a cut of every customer and keep the relationship, so you are renting your own regulars back month after month. Your own site fills the same diary and the same tables, takes the booking or the order directly, and keeps the customer, and their details, yours.
Local trade is chosen on how you look and how easy you are to reach. Whether a customer is picking where to eat, who to book for a haircut or which local to head to, they decide by looking, and they go with the one that showed them what they wanted and made it easy to say yes. A site that shows your place off and takes the booking direct is how you win them and keep the margin.
-
Keep the commission
Take bookings and orders directly instead of handing a cut to a platform on every customer, and own the relationship for next time.
-
Show it off
Your place, your work, your menu, shown so a customer deciding where to go picks you and knows exactly what they are getting.
-
Easy to say yes to
Clear booking, ordering or enquiry, and one-tap contact, so a ready customer chooses you rather than the easier-looking option next door.
