Collect customer email addresses

Email is an instant form of low cost advertising and it is very effective. Yes, people will sign up for your email list if they like your business and enjoy shopping with you. You can get a great response by offering email only specials or coupons not available unless your customer signs on to your email news letter (email advertisement list).

We recommend setting up a kiosk in store with an offer of email only specials if people sign up right there. You will be amazed and how quickly your email list grows to thousands of ready to buy customers just waiting for your news letter or email only specials to hit their in box. It is like ringing the dinner bell and watching them come running and the best part is you don’t have to pay hundreds to the local radio station or news paper.

A Website is Inexpensive

Having a website for your business is very inexpensive compared to other means of advertising. Radio, TV and News Paper ads can cost thousands of dollars per year and you have to put up with a constant sales pitch about how you need more and bigger ads.

Having a business website built will cost you $150.00 to setup and starts at only 10.00 per month depending on your plan. Sweet Deal compared to the other forms of advertising you can chose. If you check our Business web hosting site it will say $295.00 for this package but we are offering a special price for those of you who find us through this website.

AVC Hosting uses Linux

AVC Hosting uses Linux on all of our servers and Linux is the foremost example of how and why the open source software community can compete and even win out over large corporations such as Microsoft.

The huge plus you get when using wordpress are these: You can’t screw it up, hundreds of free plug-ins and hundreds of free templates you can download and install for free. You heard that right, FREE. Why not take advantage?. We can walk you through installing the free templates and plug-ins or we can do it for you FREE.

This is just another great reason to chose AVC Hosting. We still believe in the concept of great customer service. We actually get many business referrals this way as the business community is a tight group who constantly communicate and seek each other’s advice about what works and who to deal with behind the scenes. We have been in business since 1999 and know all too well what works and what does not when it comes to local business advertising.
