Ben rings you back within one working day, usually sooner.

Rather I rang you?

No time in the calendar suits, or you would like a quick word first? Leave your number and a good time to call, and I will ring you back. Only your name, phone number and email are needed; anything else just helps me arrive knowing a bit about your business.

Ben rings you back on this. It is the quickest way to get a time in the diary.

What are you looking for?

Tick anything that applies. Nothing here commits you to it.

Best time to call
How would you like to meet?

A search, a friend, a flyer, a van in the street: whatever it was.

If a person or a business sent you, their name means they can be thanked.

A few emails a year at most, about things that are genuinely useful to a local business. Unsubscribe in one click, and your address is never sold or shared.

The half hour

What happens in the consultation

It is a conversation, not a sales pitch, and it costs nothing. The aim is to leave you with a clearer idea of what would help, whether or not you ever spend a penny here.

  1. Your pain points

    What is actually frustrating you: the enquiries that go unanswered, the diary that gets double-booked, the website nobody can find.

  2. What you would like improved

    More enquiries, fewer no-shows, less time on the phone, a site you are not embarrassed to hand out. I work out what "better" looks like for you specifically.

  3. How a job gets done today

    How a job comes in and how it gets done today, step by step. That is where the improvements hide, and quite often the fix is smaller and cheaper than expected.

Face to face anywhere in Edinburgh and the Lothians, or on Zoom from anywhere in the UK or worldwide. Pick a time online, or leave your number and Ben rings you back.

Good to know

Nothing to pay and nothing to prepare

What it costs

Nothing. There is no obligation at the end of it, and if a website is not the thing that will help you most, you will be told so. Email ben@weblothian.co.uk if you would rather write than talk.

If your business is in Edinburgh or the Lothians, the work that follows is quoted at a heavily discounted local rate, because you are close enough to meet in person and helping local firms is the point of WebLothian.
