Training and attention

HedgeMage's picture

Here at Suzhead, we're not priced too far off of our biggest competitors. What we can offer that they can't often comes down to training and attention. I don't usually work with clients who have their own IT departments managing their web sites, and the bigger shops don't seem to be as ready to work the support/training angle in the small-mid-size price range. Even a $2k client will get a quick response from me, and I include training whenever there is a site build or new feature in the mix.

After all, the technology doesn't do much good if they can't get ramped up to using it effectively.
