Our answer is absolutely a resounding YES! Why is this you ask. Well you have to understand that nowadays most people are searching on the internet for products and services and if you are not there then they will go in search of your competition.
Whether you are a sole trader plumber or a much larger business enterprise you should be dominating your local market place.
This article published in eMarketer explains how important it is.
Over a year ago we were faced with a dilema – do we continue to do what we have always done 24/7 or do make that all important decision to do what we have always wanted to do.

Maybe there is some pain involved somewhere along the line – perhaps it is letting go of a long term client or contract for example or completely changing your business focus.
It is likely that you are having conversations with yourself about what to do, convincing yourself that you are not quite ready yet; that you need more space and more time but it brings to mind the expression “if you always do what you’ve always done you’ll always get what you’ve always got”
So here are our top tips in that decision making process:-

We are off to Birmingham for the British Small Animal Veterinary Congress where we will be supporting VetiT who are a practice management system provider and will also be taking to practice owners and managers about choosing a computer system.
Having been advising and working in veterinary practices for over 15 years we believe our experience will be hugely helpful.
The internet has given practices a far wider reach than ever before and with the growth of social media, additional client touch points are now within the reach of all practices.
VetIT are booked to show at the BSAVA Congress again in 2010 – 8-11 April at the ICC / NIA Birmingham.
Look out for us on stand 901 which is by the stairs to the BSAVA stands at the Guinness Bar end of the main hall. Visitors to the stand can register for our competition to win a superb iPod Touch - see the show guide for more details of our show offer.
