My site has a catalog (sanmar) and I use it exclusively as a tool for my customers; I'm not expecting to get new customers via the website. I just re-vamped mine and still need to add some good sample pictures and some testimonials (a very good marketing tool). It is relatively simple (I did it myself) but seems to work as intended. A FAQ page is always helpful. One piece of advice: if you have a website, include the address on all your marketing/PR items. Good Luck!

I know nothing about them so I am having someone come help me set it up. What are the best things to have? Can I link to catalogs so the customer can browse? Can I have my marked up price on the items in the catalogs? I don't want to sell anything on the site but I do want it to be attractive and give a good idea of what I do. Thank you for any suggestions! Jo Jo Just Sew It Custom Embroidery
