6. Save Time with Answers to Frequently Asked Questions Online

- You can even email them out a link to these pages. Your customers will appreciate the knowledge that you will be providing them and it will not require much more additional time than sending them an email or recommending that they read your Frequently Asked Questions page.

7. Educate Your Customers

- The first step of any sale is getting the client familiar with what you are selling.
- Include articles of interest telling your potential clients about your services. When they call you to discuss your services, half the sale is already done; you've already given them your "pitch".
- You will even save time (and money) because the ones who do call are interested, warm (and sometimes hot) prospects, not just someone calling to gather information.

8. Get Referrals

- Referrals are one of the best ways for small businesses to get new clients.
- On your web site you can add a "refer a friend" link where your current clients (or just visitors) can send your link to a friend who may be interested in your services.
- This will increase your number of referrals and make it easy for people to refer business to you.

- This is a fast and effective form of communication that enables you to communicate very efficiently with potential customers

- A picture or profile of you or your associates will make you more real to the client and make the client more likely to contact and communicate with you.

12. Gather Contact Information
