RetailOnline Presence & Digital Marketing3MediumOwner$ implied
A small antiques store struggles with online discoverability and has no website, relying on manual social media posting and a Google Business page that is hard to make visible.
Existing DIY website builders like Wix or Squarespace require significant time to learn and still may not result in good SEO or discoverability; hiring a web developer is costly and ongoing maintenance is unclear.
