At Good Idea Cafe, we offer our own version of the blue plate special. It's the perfect "starter site" for the new small business. More...



 

On the Web ... but Why?

If you don't want to do it on your web site, don't offer it as an option. This month's "web tale" involves a car repair shop that offers to talk with customers online ... but then telephones them instead.

The services we offer at Good Idea Cafe


Like any remarkable "cafe" we offer the services that our clients tell us they want. That means that we don't work off a "menu". Each of the services offered are customized ... even created ... to meet your needs. We take the larger view of your communications strategy and working as part of your team, design solutions that strengthen that strategy.

Consulting

We look forward to working with you to examine any and all aspects of your entire online presence. This might include such diverse areas as your marketing efforts, building community with your current and prospective customers, or effectively communicating with your staff. The "web" is the vehicle. Helping you to use it effectively is our job.   More...

Web Design

We create goal-driven web sites. What does that mean? In a word: listening. We listen to you and most importantly to your customer. At Good Idea Cafe, we create sites that meet both your needs and your customers needs. Sites that accomplish your goals. Sites that provide a return on your investment of time and money.   More...

Communications

As we say in our tagline: "It's not a good idea until someone hears about it." Doesn't the same hold true for your company? Until your prospective customers hears about you ... you've not succeeded. Until your staff reads the new policy ... it's not going to be implemented. Until the parents hear that school will let out early because of the impending snow storm ... they're not making arrangements to pick up the kids. Fast, effective, always the latest update ... that's what Good Idea Cafe sites accomplish.   More...

Publications

Newsletters, sale notices, owner's manuals, policies, procedures ... the list of documents that your customers and your staff need is almost endless. Consider the cost of printing and mailing these documents. The customer service damage of not being able to provide information on-demand. The consequences of having outdated and obsolete material in someone's hands. It's all about getting the right information at the right time to the right person.   More...
