Connect With Clients, Online
As a TFBC member, your company is listed in a directory that can include a link to your website. More and more potential customers use the web to research their interests before they talk to a professional, and your presence online is key to making an early connection.
Your website can help you:
- Convey your business practices and commitment to quality
- Showcase a portfolio of work that demonstrates your creative genius
- Demonstrate your credibility and reliability for customers
- Increase the number of sales leads you receive
Beyond website basics
Once you have a website to anchor your web presence, you can expand your reach online using other tools like social media, email news, and paid advertising. These tools beyond the basic website help to raise awareness for your organization and keep you connected with communities of interested people. TFBC has several resources to help you take that next step. Please contact Pam for more information.
Timber Frame Websites
As the web becomes more integral to how we run our businesses, TFBC is ready to help our member companies make the transition forward. If you’re in need of a website upgrade or a new site from the ground up, we’ve put together an affordable website package that will help you get there.
Our website package is offered through a partnership with a full-service marketing solutions firm called Polaris, Inc. Polaris has over 20 years of experience working with construction industry organizations, and they understand the specialized needs of timber framers.
For TFBC members only, Polaris is offering an exclusive site design package. You’ll get the benefit of their website design expertise and you won’t have to teach them the industry to get started.
