    Technical Co-founder

    What's the proper detail of the project, just an overview of the business plans and projections; e.g. who's the customer and their demographic, what's the market size, in what countries, are there current competitors & if so what is their proposition, how will it be marketed, how will it make...

    Avenues for digital marketing IT/cloud company.

    X issues and suspensions are normally down to policy violations, incomplete or fake profiles, or payment issues. The answer to your "where to market" question is based on research; e.g. where do your potential customers (hobbyists) look, and what do they actually look for? Unfortunately, I...

    Feedback on our website

    The website looks OK, but it ranks for virtually no relevant search terms, and looks like it hasn't been developed with a marketing plan and customer strategy underpinning it. To make the website work from a marketing and customer perspective, you need to work the other way around, asking...

    Looking for a reputable company who can build me a website

    Thanks @Frank the Insurance guy @CassieJ We specialise in web design that generate leads or sales, that means we don't just build websites that look nice, or for the sake of it. A site that can't be found and isn't compelling for customers is a waste of everyone's time. We use your business...

    Alternative to registering on Google business

    I suspect the hostility is because you don't appear to be a business, and you've already had the relevant advice. If you don't have a shop or office customers can visit, you can have a Google Business Profile (GBP), however, this needs to be set up as a service area business listing; details...

    Alternative to registering on Google business

    If you're registering as a service area business, then signage and address are not super relevant, as you don't show these on you Google listing, juts the town/areas you serve. You may still need to video verify, but if you're a Limited company this is usually OK, as long as your address matches...

    Looking to Partner With an Independent Google Ads Specialist (Home Services / Roofing)

    @cp. It's an odd ask, as the key to running and getting good Google Ads search lead gen results is building and testing ads, landing pages, tracking, and funnel's. It's very difficult, if not impossible, to do one aspect well; e.g. just the ads, without working on and testing all those other...

    Sharing files using Onedrive

    We'd need to understand your setup, but it sounds like each Onedrive is personal storage. This is not designed for sharing folders across different users. If you have MS 365 with multiple licenses (essentially a company/business setup), what you do is create a Sharepoint instance and add all...

    Getting the message out there

    This isn't how the world, nor the internet and business works. People search for solutions to their problems, they don't understand tech speak, or internal developer type language. Literally no C Suite, founder or business owner is searching for what your site talks about, there is no UK or...

    Budget 2025 Overview

    @potato632 Some bizzare old nonsense going on here, I'd do some research fella. I worked in retail management at the time of the Sunday trading changes, it made very little difference to weekly turnover, but reduced Saturday takings considerably. More hours open means more cost, it would...

    Budget 2025 Overview

    I agree, it's worrying right enough. If a large group of the general public think all politicians are corrupt or in it for themselves, then we have a major problem. We may well end up with Farage, or a coalition, with him in power... Let's be honest, Labour and especially Starmer don't seem to...

    Budget 2025 Overview

    The trouble with that is it's smokescreen rubbish peddled by the right telling you what to think, they are experts in divide and conquer tactics. It really isn't one of the main problems within the country, just what people are being told is a problem. I deal with the general public and...

    What’s a “good” conversion rate for websites in the UK/EU right now?

    Unfortunately the question and the answers will always be too vague, industry averages are truly awful in most lead and ecommerce areas. Who wants to be average! Ecommerce often comes down to mainly price, plus speed of delivery, then usability of the website, along with marketing budget and...

    Looking for Insights from Small Business Owners around using AI ...

    Your not identifying how you're different there, you're talking tech and jargon. No one cares about jargon at SMEs, they want solutions to their problems. That's the tough part to do/get across. I'd not try any Ai based on that, the ethics side is good, but most people don't know about Ai...
