Introduction

Every day, thousands of Colombians search on Google for exactly what you sell. "Affordable dentist in Bogotá", "family lawyer in Medellín", "surprise breakfast delivery Cali", "freelance web developer Colombia". If your business doesn't show up when someone makes that search, that customer belongs to your competition. It's that simple.

According to the most recent report from the Colombian Chamber of E-Commerce, 72% of Colombians research online before buying any product or hiring any service. It doesn't matter if you have a restaurant, a medical office, a law firm, or a clothing store: your customer is already looking for you on Google. The question is whether they find you.

But here's the detail that most business owners don't understand: it's not enough to have a website. You need a professional website specifically designed to get customers. Having a poorly designed, slow site with no conversion strategy is like having a salesperson who can't talk, dresses badly, and falls asleep on the first date with a customer.

In this guide I'm going to share with you exactly what makes a professional website get customers in the Colombian market of 2026. These aren't theories pulled from gringo marketing books. These are strategies I've applied with real businesses in Bogotá, Medellín, Cali, and other cities across the country for more than 8 years.

If you apply even half of what you're about to read here, your website will stop being an expense and become your main source of income.


Why a professional website gets customers (and an amateur one doesn't)

I've seen hundreds of websites from Colombian companies. Many are what I call "ghost sites": they exist, but they don't sell. They have nice design (sometimes), but no one finds them, no one reads them, and of course no one contacts them.

The difference between a website that gets customers and one that doesn't comes down to six fundamental pillars:

1. Visibility: getting found

The most beautiful website in the world is useless if it doesn't show up on Google. A professional site is built from day one with solid technical SEO: clean URL structure, optimized meta tags, schema markup for rich snippets, fast load times, and content strategically designed to rank for the keywords your customers actually search for.

In Colombia, many companies still underestimate SEO. They think that just by having a page they'll appear on Google. The reality is that without a well-executed technical SEO strategy, your site is invisible to 95% of your potential customers.

2. Instant credibility

A Stanford University study showed that 75% of users judge a company's credibility based solely on its website design. In Colombia, where trust is a decisive factor for any commercial transaction, this is even more critical.

A professional website communicates: "we are a serious, established, and trustworthy business." An amateur site communicates exactly the opposite, without the owner even realizing it.

3. Conversion: getting them to take action

It's not enough for people to visit you. You need them to do something: write you on WhatsApp, fill out a form, call you, buy. A professional site is designed with a clear conversion objective on every page. Every element —from the button color to the form position— is thought out to guide the visitor toward the action you want them to take.

4. Speed and user experience

In Colombia, where a significant portion of web traffic still comes from mobile devices with 3G and 4G connections, loading speed is critical. If your site takes more than 3 seconds to load, you lose approximately 40% of visitors. A professional site is built with modern technologies that guarantee instant loading even on slow connections.

5. Automation: working 24/7

A human salesperson works 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. A professional website works 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. With smart forms and lead capture systems, your website never sleeps. It captures customers while you sleep, eat, or spend time with your family.

6. Measurement and continuous improvement

Unlike traditional advertising (flyers, radio, billboards), a website gives you exact data on how many people visit you, where they come from, what pages they view, how long they stay, and how many convert into customers. With tools like Google Analytics and Search Console, you can make decisions based on real data, not intuition.


Local SEO: the most profitable channel to get customers in Colombia

If you have a business with a physical location or provide services in a specific geographic area (Bogotá, Medellín, Cali, Barranquilla, etc.), local SEO is, without question, the customer acquisition channel with the best return on investment that exists.

When someone searches "veterinarian near me", "labor lawyer Bogotá", or "motorcycle shop Medellín", Google shows what's known as the "Local Pack": a group of 3 highlighted businesses with map, reviews, hours, and phone number. Appearing in that Local Pack can mean dozens of new customers every month without paying a single peso in advertising.

How to rank your business on Google Maps and local searches

Step 1: Optimize your Google Business Profile (formerly Google My Business)

This is the most important factor for local SEO. Make sure to:

  • Complete ALL information: exact business name, address, phone, hours, categories.
  • Upload real photos of your business regularly (at least one new photo each week).
  • Respond to all reviews, both positive and negative.
  • Publish updates, offers, and events using Google's "posts" feature.
  • Choose the correct categories (primary and secondary).

Step 2: Consistency in NAP citations (Name, Address, Phone)

Your name, address, and phone must be exactly the same everywhere your business appears on the internet: your website, Google Business Profile, local directories (Yellow Pages, InformaColombia), social media, and any other site where you're listed.

A single discrepancy —like writing "Cra." on one side and "Carrera" on another— can confuse Google and hurt your ranking.

Step 3: Create local service pages on your website

If you provide services in multiple areas of a city or in multiple cities, create specific pages for each location. For example:

  • /servicios/plomeria/usaquen-bogota
  • /servicios/plomeria/chapinero-bogota
  • /servicios/plomeria/suba-bogota

Each page must have unique content about the area and the specific services you offer there. This tells Google that you are relevant for searches in that geographic area.

Step 4: Get genuine reviews from satisfied customers

Reviews are possibly the most underestimated local ranking factor. They not only influence your position on Google Maps, but they are the main decision factor for Colombian customers. A business with 50 reviews and 4.8 stars generates much more trust than one with no reviews, even if it has the best website in the world.

Practical strategy: after each successful service, send your customer a direct link to leave you a review on Google. Make the process easy for them. A simple WhatsApp message with the direct link can increase your review rate by 300%.

Step 5: Build local links (local backlinks)

Get other relevant Colombian websites to link to yours. Some ideas:

  • Sponsor local events and ask them to include your link on the event page.
  • Collaborate with other complementary businesses (not competitors) to exchange links.
  • Participate in interviews or write articles for local media.
  • Join your city's Chamber of Commerce and other business associations.

Conversion-focused design: how to turn visits into real customers

Web design is not decoration. It's visual persuasion. Every element of your site must answer a single question: does this help the visitor become a customer or does it distract from that goal?

Design principles that sell

1. Clear visual hierarchy

The human eye follows predictable patterns when scanning a web page. In the West, we read from left to right and top to bottom in an F-shaped pattern. Your most important content should be where the eye looks first.

The golden rule: the visitor must understand in less than 5 seconds what you do, who you do it for, and how they can hire you. If they need more time, you've lost them.

2. One objective per page

Each page of your site must have a clear conversion objective. The homepage can invite visitors to explore services. A specific service page must have a single CTA: "Request a quote", "Schedule an appointment", "Chat on WhatsApp".

Pages with multiple objectives compete against each other and confuse the user. One page, one objective.

3. Colors with purpose

Colors aren't a matter of taste. They're applied psychology. Some basic principles:

  • The CTA button must contrast with the rest of the page. If your site is blue, an orange or green button stands out more.
  • Warm colors (red, orange) generate urgency. Ideal for limited offers.
  • Cool colors (blue, green) convey trust and professionalism. Ideal for B2B services.
  • White isn't empty space; it's breathing space that makes your content readable.

4. Legible typography

On mobile —which in Colombia represents more than 70% of web traffic— legibility is everything. Use font sizes of at least 16px for body text, high contrast between text and background, and never use more than 2 font families across the entire site.

5. Images that sell, not that decorate

Generic stock photos with smiling models in an office that isn't yours destroy credibility. Use real photos of your business, your team, your facilities, your products. If you don't have professional photos, it's worth investing in a photography session. The return in credibility and conversion more than justifies it.

6. Mobile-first

If your site doesn't look perfect on a phone, it doesn't work. Period. More than 70% of local searches in Colombia are made from mobile phones. Google, moreover, uses the "mobile-first" index, which means the mobile version of your site is what determines your position in search results.

Test your site on at least 3 different devices and on real 3G/4G connections before launching it. If something doesn't work perfectly on mobile, fix it before publishing.


Loading speed: the invisible factor costing you customers

Imagine a potential customer searches for your service on Google, clicks on your website, and the page takes 6 seconds to load. Do you know what that customer does? They close the tab and click on the next search result. They're gone. And the worst part: they'll probably never come back.

According to Google data, as load time goes from 1 to 3 seconds, the probability of the user abandoning the site increases by 32%. If it goes from 1 to 5 seconds, the probability of abandonment increases by 90%. In Colombia, where many mobile connections aren't fiber optic, loading speed can be the difference between a new customer and a lost customer.

How speed affects your business

Loss of organic traffic: Google actively penalizes slow sites. Since the Core Web Vitals update, loading speed is a direct ranking factor. A slow site appears lower in search results, gets fewer visits, and therefore fewer customers.

Loss of conversions: Amazon calculated that for every 100 milliseconds of loading speed improvement, their sales increased by 1%. For a Colombian SME, a site that loads in 2 seconds can have double the conversion rate of one that loads in 5 seconds.

Poor user experience: A slow site frustrates. And a frustrated customer doesn't buy. Plus, they associate slowness with lack of professionalism. "If they can't even make their page load fast, how are they going to handle my project well?"

How to achieve a fast website in Colombia

Choose modern technologies. Frameworks like Next.js and Astro generate static sites served from a global CDN, which means your site loads just as fast in Bogotá as in Leticia. WordPress can be fast, but requires expert optimization and usually becomes slow over time if not properly maintained.

Optimize images. Most slow sites have unoptimized images. Use modern formats like WebP, compress images without losing visible quality, and use lazy loading so images only load when the user is about to see them.

Use good hosting. Cheap hosting at $50,000 COP per year is one of the main causes of slow websites in Colombia. Quality hosting (VPS or cloud hosting) costs more, but the difference in speed is abysmal.

Minimize code. Remove unused JavaScript and CSS, combine files, and use a CDN to serve your content from servers geographically close to your users. In Colombia, Cloudflare has points of presence in Bogotá that significantly accelerate content delivery.


Smart forms and calls to action that convert

The contact form is, for most businesses, the point where a visitor becomes a customer. And yet, it's the worst-designed element on most Colombian websites.

Deadly form mistakes

Asking for too much information. Does your form have 12 required fields? Congratulations, you just scared away 80% of your potential customers. Each additional field reduces the conversion rate. Ask only for what's strictly necessary: name, phone or email, and an open message field.

Not having a clear CTA. "Submit" is not a call to action. "Get my free quote", "I want to talk to an advisor", "Schedule my appointment now" are. The CTA must communicate exactly what will happen when the user clicks and what benefit they get.

Not giving feedback. If the user submits the form and nothing visible happens, they assume it didn't work and leave. Show a clear confirmation message, a thank-you page, or redirect them to a valuable resource.

Forms that don't work well on mobile. On a phone, typing is uncomfortable. If your form isn't optimized for mobile (large fields, numeric keyboard for phone, autocomplete enabled), you're losing customers.

How to design forms that convert

  1. Maximum 3-4 fields. If you need more information, collect it in a second stage, after the first contact.
  2. Specific, benefit-oriented CTA. Not "Submit". "I want my free diagnosis" or "Request a no-obligation quote".
  3. Real-time validation. If the user makes a mistake typing their email, let them know instantly, not after submitting.
  4. WhatsApp option as an alternative. Many Colombians prefer writing on WhatsApp to filling out a form. Offer both options. A floating WhatsApp button or one next to the form can increase your conversions by 30% to 50%.
  5. Social proof near the form. A small text like "More than 200 satisfied customers in Bogotá" or "Join the 50+ businesses already working with us" reduces the user's anxiety before giving their data.

CTAs that convert: applied psychology

  • Urgency: "Book today and get a 15% discount this week" works better than "Book your appointment".
  • Specificity: "Get your personalized quote in less than 2 hours" generates more clicks than "Contact us".
  • Low risk: "No obligation", "No cost", "Free quote" eliminate mental barriers.
  • Always-visible button: Your main CTA should be visible without scrolling on the first screen (above the fold), both on desktop and mobile.

Valuable content: your blog as a magnet for qualified customers

A blog is not a personal diary of your company. It's a customer-attracting machine that works 24/7 in the long term. Every article you publish is a new page indexed on Google, a new opportunity to appear in searches, and proof that you know what you're talking about.

Why content works to get customers in Colombia

When a potential customer searches on Google "how to choose a good orthodontist in Medellín" and finds a detailed article on a dental clinic's blog explaining exactly what they should consider, that clinic has already won. The customer hasn't requested an appointment yet, but they already trust that clinic more than the others.

Valuable content does three things simultaneously:

  1. Positions you on Google for keywords your customers are searching for.
  2. Demonstrates your expertise and builds trust before the first contact.
  3. Educates your potential customer, which means that when they contact you, they'll already be more qualified and easier to convert.

Content strategy for Colombian businesses

Find your customers' real questions. Don't write about what interests you. Write about what your customers ask. What doubts do they send you on WhatsApp? What objections do you hear in sales? What topics do they ask you for recommendations about? Each of those questions is a potential blog article.

Target long-tail keywords. Instead of trying to rank for "lawyer" (impossible for a small business), aim for "family lawyer child custody Bogotá". Fewer searches, but much more specific and with much more hiring intent.

Create content for each stage of the buying process. Some customers are ready to buy today ("quote website Bogotá"). Others are just researching ("how much does a website cost in Colombia"). You need content for both stages.

Update your content regularly. Google rewards sites that publish fresh, relevant content. An abandoned blog since 2023 communicates abandonment. An active blog communicates that your business is alive and growing.

Distribute your content. It's not enough to publish. Share every article on your social media, send it by WhatsApp to potential customers, include it in your newsletter. Content doesn't promote itself.

Landing pages: your secret weapon for high-performance campaigns

While your website is a shopping mall with many doors, a landing page is a missile with a single objective. And when it comes to getting customers through specific campaigns, the missile is much more effective.

When and why to use landing pages

Imagine this situation: you launch a Facebook Ads campaign offering a special discount on orthodontics for new patients in Bogotá. You spend $2,000,000 COP on ads. But instead of sending traffic to a specific landing page for that offer, you send them to your clinic's homepage.

Result: the user arrives at a generic page with information about all specialties, the team of doctors, the facilities, and the blog. They get distracted, can't easily find what they were looking for, and leave without scheduling. You lost money.

With a professional landing page focused exclusively on that orthodontics offer, the user finds exactly what the ad promised. They can only do one of two things: schedule their appointment or leave. No distractions. The conversion rate skyrockets.

Elements of a landing page that converts

  1. Headline that matches the ad exactly. What you promise in the ad must be the first thing the user reads when they arrive.
  2. Clear and specific value proposition. "Laser teeth whitening for $180,000 COP. Results in one session. Promotion valid until May 30."
  3. Relevant social proof. Testimonials from satisfied patients with the same treatment, not generic testimonials.
  4. A single CTA, repeated strategically. The same "Schedule my appointment with discount" button appears 2-3 times throughout the page.
  5. No navigation menu. On a landing page, the menu only serves to let the user escape. Eliminate it.
  6. Guarantee or risk removal. "If you're not satisfied with the results, we'll refund your money." This drastically reduces purchase anxiety.
  7. Real urgency (not fake). "Only 15 spots available at this price" is more credible than "Limited time offer" without specifics.

The multiple landings strategy

The most successful Colombian businesses I know don't have one landing page; they have several. One for each main service, one for each active campaign, one for each different customer profile. This allows them to:

  • Make paid advertising much more profitable (ultra-segmented traffic = more conversions).
  • Measure precisely which offers and messages work best.
  • Adapt the message to each type of customer without compromising the main message of the website.

WhatsApp Business integration: respond before your competition

In Colombia, WhatsApp is not just another communication option. WhatsApp is THE form of communication. More than 94% of Colombians with a smartphone actively use WhatsApp. If your website doesn't have a visible WhatsApp button, you're ignoring the communication preference of 94% of your market.

The well-implemented WhatsApp button

A simple floating WhatsApp button can increase your leads by 30% to 60%. But it has to be done right:

  • It must be visible but not invasive. An icon in the lower right corner is the standard.
  • It must open the conversation directly with a predefined message. "Hello, I saw your website and would like more information about [specific service]" makes it easier for the customer to take the first step.
  • It must have a visible response time. "We respond in less than 15 minutes during business hours" sets clear expectations and reduces anxiety.

The difference between a passive website (the user looks for information and leaves) and a proactive website (the site facilitates the first contact and captures the lead) is the difference between a business that survives and one that scales.


Social proof and trust: why Colombians buy by recommendation

If there's one thing that characterizes the Colombian consumer, it's that they trust a friend's recommendation more than any marketing strategy. In fact, according to a Nielsen study on consumer trust in Latin America, 83% of Colombians trust recommendations from friends and family above any other form of advertising.

Your professional website must replicate that trust mechanism. Here's how:

Testimonials that actually sell

The typical generic testimonial ("Excellent service, highly recommended") doesn't convince anyone. A testimonial that sells has three elements:

  1. Specific. "Thanks to the website Omar developed for me, I went from receiving 5 inquiries per month to receiving 30. In 3 months I recovered the entire investment."
  2. Attributable. Include real name, photo, city, and if possible, link to the business.
  3. Overcomes objections. "At first I hesitated because the price was higher than other options, but the quality and results were completely worth it."

Documented success stories

More powerful than a testimonial is a documented success story: what problem the customer had, what solution you implemented, what results they achieved. With numbers, dates, and concrete details. A well-written success story is the piece of content that will bring you the most B2B customers in Colombia.

Trust seals and certifications

If your business has certifications, memberships in associations, awards, or recognitions, show them. The logos of the Chamber of Commerce, Fenalco, ISO certifications, or even Google's "verified" badge generate an immediate effect of legitimacy.

Google reviews embedded on your site

You can embed your Google reviews directly on your website. Seeing 4.8 stars with 87 real Google reviews has much more impact than any text you could write about the quality of your service.

Recognizable clients

If you've worked with well-known brands in Colombia, show it. A "Companies that trust us" section with logos of your most recognizable clients can be the decisive factor for a new customer to decide to contact you.


Common mistakes that drive customers away from your website

In 8 years of developing websites and analyzing conversion metrics, I've identified the most common and most costly mistakes Colombian businesses make on their websites. Avoid them at all costs:

Mistake 1: Not having a clear objective

Your website must have one main objective. Just one. It can be "get appointments for consultation", "receive quote requests", "sell products online", or "capture subscribers". But if you try to make your site do everything at the same time, it won't do anything well. Define the main objective and design everything around it.

Mistake 2: Contact information hard to find

I've seen sites where the phone is hidden in the footer in 10px font. I've seen sites without WhatsApp. I've seen contact forms that take 3 clicks to reach. Your contact information must be visible on every page, at the top, without needing to scroll.

Mistake 3: Generic texts without personality

"We are a leading company in the sector, committed to excellence and quality..." What business do you think that phrase belongs to? All of them. And therefore, to none of them. Your copy must sound like you, like your business, like the way you talk. If a customer can't distinguish your website from your competitor's in 10 seconds of reading, you have a serious problem.

Mistake 4: Ignoring mobile

Even in 2026 I find websites of Colombian companies that don't look good on mobile. Menus that don't open, text that goes off the screen, forms that can't be filled out. This is not acceptable. Your site must work perfectly on mobile or it shouldn't exist.

Mistake 5: Not having a clear services or products page

Many sites talk about the company, its history, its values... but never clearly say what they sell or how much it costs. Your services must be described with crystal clarity, ideally with visible prices or price ranges. Colombian customers value transparency.

Mistake 6: Terrible loading speed

We already talked about this in depth, but it's worth repeating: if your site takes more than 3 seconds to load, you're giving your customers to the competition.

Mistake 7: Not having a blog or valuable content

A website without a blog is like a salesperson who doesn't talk. The blog is your opportunity to demonstrate that you know what you're talking about, position yourself on Google for more searches, and build trust before the first contact. Check out our blog for examples of how content can attract qualified traffic.

Mistake 8: Not having analytics installed

If you don't measure, you don't improve. Google Analytics and Google Search Console are free and give you invaluable information about who visits your site, how they find it, what pages they view, and where they leave. Installing them takes 15 minutes. Not doing it is flying blind.

Mistake 9: Using generic stock photos

Nothing screams "generic and unprofessional" like typical stock photos of people in a prop office. Invest in real photography of your business. The difference in perceived professionalism is immediate.

Mistake 10: Not having a clear call to action

Every page must end with a clear invitation to take the next step. Don't assume the user will look for your contact form on their own initiative. Tell them exactly what you want them to do and make it easy with a visible button.


How to measure if your website is getting customers

You can't improve what you don't measure. And the beauty of digital marketing is that everything can be measured. Here's exactly what metrics you should track to know if your site is generating customers and what to do when it's not.

Fundamental metrics you must monitor

Monthly organic traffic. How many people reach your site from Google each month? This metric tells you if your SEO is working. If the number doesn't grow month over month, something is wrong with your content strategy or your technical SEO.

Conversion rate. Out of every 100 visitors, how many contact you? This is the most important metric of all. You can have 10,000 visits per month, but if only 2 people contact you, your site isn't designed to convert. A healthy conversion rate for a service site in Colombia is between 2% and 5%.

Traffic source. Do your visits come from Google, social media, links on other sites, or direct search? Knowing where they come from allows you to double down on what works and stop doing what doesn't.

Most visited pages. What content does your audience consume the most? The most visited pages tell you what really interests your market.

Bounce rate. How many visitors leave your site without interacting? A high bounce rate (more than 70%) can indicate that the content doesn't match what the user was looking for, or that the user experience is poor.

Average time on page. Do visitors read your content or just scan it and leave? A low average time can indicate irrelevant or unattractive content.

Essential free tools

  1. Google Analytics 4. Tells you who visits your site, from where, what they do, and how long they stay.
  2. Google Search Console. Tells you what keywords people find you for, what position you appear in, and how many clicks you receive.
  3. Google PageSpeed Insights. Tells you how fast your site loads and gives you specific recommendations to improve it.
  4. Hotjar (free plan). Shows you heat maps of where users click and recordings of real sessions.

What to do with the data

Review these metrics at least once a month. Ask yourself these questions:

  • Is organic traffic growing? If not, you need more content or better SEO.
  • Is the conversion rate acceptable? If not, optimize forms, CTAs, and social proof.
  • Are visitors doing what you expect? If not, watch Hotjar recordings to understand why.
  • Which pages convert better? Duplicate that format on other pages.

You can use our price calculator to estimate how much you should be investing in your website based on the results you expect to get.


Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to start seeing results with my professional website?

It depends on the channel. If you invest in paid advertising (Google Ads, Facebook Ads), you can see results in hours or days. If your strategy is organic (SEO, content), results usually start to be noticeable between month 3 and month 6, and accelerate from month 6 onward. SEO is a medium and long-term investment, but when it kicks in, the traffic it generates is free and sustained.

Do I need to know about technology to manage my website?

It depends on the technology it's built with. If you use a CMS like WordPress with a good page builder (Elementor, for example), you can make basic changes like updating texts and images without technical knowledge. If your site is built with modern technologies like Next.js or Astro without a visual CMS, you'll need technical support for content changes. It's important to discuss this with your developer before starting the project so you choose the solution that fits your operational capacity.

What's the difference between the SEO I can do and professional SEO?

Basic SEO —writing good titles, descriptions, using keywords in content, and optimizing images— you can do yourself with a little learning. But technical SEO —loading speed, schema markup, canonicalization, information architecture, indexing, Core Web Vitals— requires specialized knowledge. A technical SEO error can cause Google not to index your site correctly or even penalize you. For most businesses, the investment in professional SEO pays for itself with the increase in traffic and customers.

Is it enough to have social media or do I need a website too?

Social media and websites aren't alternatives; they're complements. Social media is excellent for discovery and community building, but you don't control them: Instagram or Facebook could change their algorithm tomorrow and your reach plummets. Your website is the only digital space you control 100%. Plus, having a professional website gives your business a credibility that an Instagram or Facebook profile can never match. Every serious business needs both.

Can I get customers with SEO alone or do I also need paid advertising?

SEO and paid advertising are two sides of the same coin. Paid advertising gives you immediate results but costs money per click. SEO takes time but the traffic it generates is free and sustained. The most effective strategy is usually: use paid advertising to get customers while you build your SEO, and gradually reduce your investment in ads as organic traffic grows.

What's the minimum budget I can start with to get customers online in Colombia?

With a tight budget, you can start with a professional landing page that costs between $1,200,000 and $2,500,000 COP, and allocate $300,000 to $500,000 COP monthly to Google Ads or Facebook Ads to attract immediate traffic. Meanwhile, you produce blog content for SEO. This strategy allows you to start invoicing quickly while you build your organic channels. Once SEO starts to yield results, you can reduce or eliminate ad spending.

How do I know if the customers who come through the internet are high quality?

The quality of leads is measured by how many of those who contact you end up becoming customers. If you receive 50 inquiries per month but only close 2 sales, something is wrong in your qualification or sales process. A well-designed website doesn't just attract more customers, but attracts better customers because the content filters: someone who reads 3 articles on your blog before contacting you arrives much more informed and convinced than someone who only saw an ad.


Conclusion and next steps
