Chris Graham: Heard about you on Facebook

Contributors

facebook_logoOur newest client wouldn’t have come our way if not for … Facebook.

“I saw a post on Facebook. I needed a new website, and decided to give you a call,” said the client, a long-time local business owner who has been in the market for a new website for quite a while.

Try 13 years. Yeah.

Quite a while.

“You just don’t know where to go. I don’t know of a lot of web designers here in Waynesboro. It seems like the kind of thing that you need to hire from outside the area.”

So it was Facebook. And not even our official Augusta Free Press Facebook page. And not our search engine optimized AFPBusiness.com website.

It was a personal Facebook account that led our new client to us.

The lesson here: It might not hurt to throw everything including the kitchen sink out there to get people to think about doing business with you.

Chris Graham is the president and CEO of Augusta Free Press LLC, a full-service web- and graphic-design and marketing-services firm based in Waynesboro, Va. Email Chris at [email protected]. More online at www.AFPBusiness.com.
