Episode description

Is your website helping your business – or hurting it? The truth is, potential customers go to your website and make a decision within seconds about whether or not you can help them. That's why your website must pass the "grunt test." Unfortunately, most business' websites don't pass this test. And if your website doesn't pass the grunt test… you're losing sales!

He explains that even the most primitive thinker (like a caveman) should be able to look at your website and know these 3 things within seconds: 1) What you do 2) How it will make his life better 3) What he needs to do in order to get it.
