Explain availability before the enquiry
A supplier, retailer or service business should make its service area and fulfilment arrangements clear. Customers need to know whether they can buy, collect, request delivery or ask for a quote before they spend time completing a form.
For businesses serving both trade and retail customers, consider separate journeys. A bulk order may require quantities, specifications and approval, while a standard retail purchase can use a normal checkout.
Use content to reduce repeated questions
List the information your sales team requests most often. Turn suitable answers into service details, product specifications, delivery guidance and useful FAQs. Keep the language direct and maintainable.
Downloadable catalogues can support the site, but core information should also be available on ordinary pages. This is easier to read on a phone and easier to update when the offer changes.
Make the operational handover clear
Before launch, test where enquiries arrive, how orders are identified and who is responsible for keeping product information current. If data comes from another system, confirm the integration and failure-handling requirements early.

Common questions
Do you have an office in Durban?
Our published office is in Pretoria. We work with Durban businesses remotely and agree project communication and review arrangements before starting.
What should I include when asking for a quote?
Tell us about the business, the service or products, your existing website, the outcome you need and any required integrations. Include a budget range and deadline where possible so the scope can be realistic.
Is ongoing work included?
Your proposal should specify what is included at launch, which costs recur and what ongoing support or campaign work is agreed. We separate those items so you can review the commitment.
