Hardest Worker: How much would you pay for someone to work 24 hours a day / 7 days a week for you? Even at minimum wage ($6.75/hr) that comes out to be $1,134.00 per week!

Saves You Time: What season do you fish? What are your prices? Are you a registered charter captain? How big is your boat? What do I need to bring? If you are a charter captain, you already know what I am talking about. ALL of your customers questions can be answered simply by visiting the website. Sometimes it can even answer their questions better than you could in person! It can be hard to describe how good the fishing was to someone in words alone, but the pictures on your website don't lie. By the time the clients contacts you, all their questions have already been answered via the website. The only question left is "Do you still have any dates available for us to book a trip?" No sweat off your back.
"Yes, if you have a business, you should have a website. Period. No question. Without a doubt. That said, it's not enough that you just have a website. You must have a professional looking site if you want to be taken seriously."
