Andrew mula sa AJ Oliver Homes
Andrew mula sa AJ Oliver Homes ay tumutulong sa mga tao na magtayo ng kanilang mga bagong tahanan para sa mga kliyente mula pa noong 2018. Ang kanyang pokus sa kalidad ng pagkakagawa ang nagtatangi sa kanya mula sa ibang mga eksperto sa konstruksyon. Alam niya na pinahahalagahan ng kanyang mga kliyente ang konstruksyon na may napapanahong pagkumpleto, mga pasadyang disenyo, at pinahahalagahan ang kanyang mga napapanatiling gawi. Sa pag-iisip na ito, alam ni Andrew na kailangan niya ng isang website ngunit gusto niya ng isa na talagang magpapakita ng mga halaga ng kanyang negosyo at magiging magaan sa gastos.

“Kapag nakikipagkita ako sa isang customer sa unang pagkakataon, sa halip na kailangan kong ibenta ang sarili ko, mabilis ko na lang masasabing, hey, tingnan mo na lang ang aking website. Sa halip na magpadala ng mga larawan, maipapakita ko ito agad at nagdadagdag ito ng isa pang antas ng propesyonalismo.”

Bakit pinili ni Andrew ang Dazzly
Andrew's work at AJ Oliver Homes covered a variety of services including enhancing outdoor living spaces, custom decks & creating stylish fences right to full renovations and complete new builds. He liked Dazzly for its simple and easy to build templates specifically designed for the trades. He needed something that he could showcase his work and create himself with a short turn around time. He was easily able to create specific services that reflected his work on his website, with his branding colours and logos.
He had looked at some overseas website companies including Wix and Squarespace but they seemed difficult and expensive. Andrew admits “It seemed easy to use. I'm not a tech savvy person. It's been something I can achieve myself without paying an expensive bill.” He appreciated the large number of tools that were available and targeted to his industry.
The face-to-face aspect
Ngayon na online na ang website ni Andrew, mabilis na niyang maipapakita sa kanyang mga kliyente sa pamamagitan ng mga link sa kanyang website o sa pamamagitan ng pagpapakita sa kanyang customer ng kanyang website kung ano ang maaari nilang asahan na magiging hitsura ng kanilang trabaho kapag natapos na. Ngayon, kapag nakikipagkita si Andrew sa isang potensyal na customer sa unang pagkakataon, maaari na niyang gamitin ang kanyang website bilang isang digital na pamphlet ng kanyang mga gawa.
Andrew says “When I do meet a customer for the first time, instead of having to sell myself, I can just really quickly say, hey, just take a look on my website” rather than having to send photos. I can show them on the spot and it just adds another layer of professionalism.
One of Andrew's favorite tools is the device preview tool - the ability to view his website on multiple device screens (mobile, desktop, tablet) and see how his website would look once published.
Andrew recommends Dazzly. Andrew notes that Dazzly is really well priced and it's a New Zealand company, so there was no downside to choosing Dazzly. “The Dazzly support team called and really encouraged me to go ahead with it.” He was really on the fence about even having a website “because, in Andrew's opinion, the construction industry is very much a word-of-mouth business. So most of my jobs came from people who'd heard of me or knew me and wanted to use my service. But the team pushed me in the right direction, and I'm really grateful for it.”
