1-800-Keep-Up-With-the-Times


Their are vanity plates (you may have one), there are also vanity phone numbers. They are catchy and help people remember your number when they need it.
Did you know that with the new Smart Phones you can not easily do this.
If your number is 555-TIME most smart phones are not like the typical phone key pad as they are designed like a computer keyboard. If you are really smart and somewhat techie you can figure it out....however most of your potential clients will only get aggravated by trying to figure it out..... So what is a smart business owner like you to do???
Create a vanity or "Sticky" web address...no not the name of your business, that is boring and won't work as well....
Let's say you are a landscaper/hardscaper, the website you promote and people remember won't be www.acmelandscaper.com.... it should be something that speaks to what people want and speaks to your creative in your message... something like www.backyardmakeover.com www.outdoorvacation.com
You can still keep your existing website address, however you should go to www.godaddy.com and buy a Sticky website address for $10 and you can simply link your new Sticky website right to your current site (Ask your IT guy if you don't know) Remember...choose a web address that is based on the benefit of your product/service
