The Road Ahead

Posted by admin on December 30, 2009 with 0 Comments

new_road_ahead As we head towards another year, and another decade (already! it seems like only yesterday we were worrying about the millennium bug!) it provides a good opportunity to reflect and look forward both personally and at a business level. For Avallach, 2009 has been a significant year; the business name was registered in Western Australia, and we quickly moved on from offering "just" web hosting, providing small and micro businesses with fully managed solutions at prices most people still can’t believe.

For the past month or so, we’ve been putting in some work on "Express BizNiz" which will provide a simple yet powerful set of tools for any home/small business person; allowing the recording of customers, suppliers, invoices and a lightweight self-managed "Express Webz" module.

Some of the downsides to 2009 have included not quite getting the social media stuff right; the Avallach Technology fan page on Facebook varies from almost useful to outright spammy, and the Twitter account is a reflection of this. This blog has also been used solely for news updates, and that’s a key change that we want to make in 2010.

From next year onwards, this blog will aim to provide good, useful, content relating to small/home/micro business web sites, search engines and other topics of interest. In the usual Avallach way there will undoubtedly be some "opinion" stuff in there as well, opinions that might be a little different from the norm.

But anyway, that’s all for the future, for now we would like to thank all of you who have been so supportive throughout 2009, and wish you all a very prosperous and rewarding 2010.

Happy New Year!

Express Web Service

Posted by admin on June 5, 2009 with 0 Comments

Express WebOne thing that all small businesses need these days is a web site, the simple fact is that people have come to EXPECT that you have a “www dot something”, and start to doubt your credentials if you don’t. It’s also a great way to gain exposure for your business, perhaps generating interest from places you hadn’t even thought of.

Particularly in today’s rough economic climate, cost-effective ways of marketing your business are essential. The natural instinct for many is to cut back on marketing and similar costs, with a web site you help ensure that your business is “out there” being seen, when others are running for shelter.

For small businesses, the two biggest barriers to having a web presence are a lack of technical skills or knowledge, and the high costs of hiring a professional web design company.

Costs can be several thousand dollars, with high ongoing monthly fees, quite possibly on top of your web hosting fees themselves.

This is why Avallach Technology have continued to champion the cause of small business, by introducing a new service, Express Web.

Aimed primarily at sole traders and small business operators, we use our skills and experience to craft a web presence for you, at very affordable prices. Exact costs may vary depending on the exact nature of your site, but the following comparison will give a good idea of the value for money we offer:

Competitor’s Quote

  • Basic web site recommended budget… between $3000 and $6000
  • Monthly recurring fees… between $80 and $200 per month
  • Additional costs may include web hosting… between $30 and $50 per month

Over the course of just 12 months, this could total as much as $9000 – a huge dent in any small business’s budget.

Express Web

  • Initial set up… between $200 and $400
  • Monthly subscription… between $45 and $90 per month
  • Web hosting and domain fees… zero cost, included in the package

Even in the upper range, this gives a first year total under $1500. Much easier to digest I’m sure.

If you’re concerned that these cost differences are achieved by cutting corners, or providing second-class service, then think again. The simple fact is Avallach Technology is different. We are driven by our vision and our desire to deliver great value to small business owners. Instead of trying to extract as many dollars from you as possible, we price ourselves more reasonably, knowing that our survival is dependent on YOUR long-term survival.

Avallach Technology is a small business too, so we know the difficulties, we understand the pressures, and we are in the same boat as you. This is why we are different, this is why our approach is unique, and this is why we continue to deliver fantastic value to our clients.

If you are serious about your business, and need to bring it into the 21st century, call or email today.

Express Education

Perhaps the biggest hurdle that home-based entrepreneurs will face is finding the right information. Whether it’s how, or where, to start, how to develop further, or the science of getting traffic to web sites, running a home-based business requires knowledge as well as tools and products.

At Avallach Technology we believe that even the smallest of home-based businesses should have access to the same quality and depth of information that is available to the big players. It is for this reason that we are proud to present as our official training, education and information provider:

Tools, Information and Opportunity

Posted by admin on March 14, 2009 with 0 Comments

Avallach Technology takes a fresh approach to online business, adopting a number of up-to-date techniques and strategies in our own work. It is these techniques and strategies that we teach to clients and partners, either on a personal basis, or via the Express Marketer framework.

Home-based business has exploded in recent times, partly thanks to the global economic situation, and it is in this area that we focus our main efforts. Many individuals join a home-based business opportunity, with little or no experience and the hope that the hype can become reality.

It is the Avallach goal to help educate as many of these people as possible, through our tools, coaching & participation in the network marketing community, and to enable them to realise their true potential. By doing this we truly can create a better world for everyone.

Our overall aim, however, is to put the right tools, right information, and opportunity in the hands of online entrpreneurs. Whether new to the industry, or experienced, we are confident that Avallach Technology will have something for everyone.

To mark this important shift, we are delighted to offer free access to our new product, The Express Marketer.
