Your 'Life' site. What's it all about?
Are you tired of the potential online business opportunities that prove to be all fur coat and no knickers? Websites that aren't discerning about who they sell to and what kind of job they do for that area?
We were, and that's why we do Life.
Take on a Life website and you'll have a rich and satisfying business opportunity which:
- has minimal start up costs
- incurs very low overheads
- is completely flexible to your lifestyle and working needs
- generates regular, incremental income
- provides easy add-on income streams
- gives you a varied, interesting and rewarding 'job' - no day ever the same!
- can become the absolute hub of your community.
Life websites market everything in their area that's independent, quirky, forward-thinking, innovative and unique in a really coherent fashion. Independent businesses benefit. The community benefits. And, you, the person behind your Life, benefit. So, welcome to Life Websites. We produce websites with real soul, with genuine, capable and passionate people who run them.
And, we care who we sell our sites to. You may have a pot of money, and whilst it's always nice to be paid, that's not what motivates us. It's important that you understand and share our ethos, otherwise we'd just be wasting your time and money..
We're looking for like-minded connectors and collaborators
These sites prove an invaluable means for local independent businesses to connect with each other and their current and potential clientele. In the right hands, a Life Website will become the crux of your independent community. It will invigorate businesses. It will enable real engagement and highlight everything that is unique about where you live. In short, a Life website is the beating heart of a community.
We're looking for like-minded Lifers to work with us. People who are totally passionate about independent enterprise. People who actually put their money where their mouths are and support indpendent enterprise, by using the local baker, the local restaurants, the local flower shop.
In short, people who are immersed in their communities.
We're not about taking a shed load of money off you & selling you a soulless "franchise", that is quite frankly, a waste of money. If you're interested in one of these "franchised local websites", we've hopefully put you off already. But, if you're still hanging in there, here's the rub. Life websites are NOT "listings" sites. They are living, breathing, ever-changing, organic hubs which promote all that is fantastic about your area. So, you have to be passionate about your locality. You have to be able to see opportunities for independent collaboration. In short, you have to love Life.
