Once you have qualified it is certainly a good idea to have a website that you can advertise to your prospective clients and to show examples of work you are doing, rates you charge, and any specific ‘special offers’ or promotions that you may consider offering to help establish your business.
It is surprising the amount of exposure even a small website can get, and could generate a good number of commissions. It also means that you can link your site to other organizations connected with Energy Assessments, who, in turn, may direct their visitors to your site.
We can provide you with an excellent web hosting service at a very reasonable monthly cost, complete with a comprehensive design service. If you are interested in discussing these options please do not hesitate to email me with your thoughts and ideas.
Even if you have very little or even no knowledge of computers or the internet, we are very happy to guide you through the various options available, the costs involved, and the designs that you may find of interest. You can have your own personalized email address and a website name that reflects your business name and identity.
As your business develops and you move forward with the new Home Energy Advisor role, many of your prospective clients will have access to your website and be able to see what services you can provide and view testimonials posted by your satisfied clients.
It is also easy to attract links to those businesses that will support your work, such as double glazing and cavity wall insulation installers, and boiler manufacturers, etc. These could generate an additional income for you by the way of commissions or referral payments.
