Reviews
We were struggling with sales lead conversions with our old website. Our cost-per-lead was no longer competitive for the industry, and we needed a quick solution. I contacted SharpNET for help from a referal from a friend. SharpNET met with us and planned out a high-converting website that would work well for PPC and email marketing. SharpNET delivered a fantastic little website that reduced our cost per sales-lead by 50%!!! We are generating about 40% more leads not, at 1/2 the price, and our sales floor is thrilled. We went on to hire SharpNET to design 2 other websites for other businesses that we manage. I highly recommend SharpNET not only for web deisng, but also for their internet marketing expertise, then have been sensational.
-Ken T.
SharpNET generated a fantastic website in a prompt and professional manner. They helped with all aspects of the web design process, and listened closely to us to make sure they delivered what were were expecting. We will now be launching and internet marketing campaign with SharpNET, and we are very excited to get started.
-D. Svederus
We were in serious need of a business website, but we only had a tiny budget to work with. SharpNET delivered the perfect solution, and the experience was wonderful. SharpNET has a great team work environment, with superior customer service. They will get out referral! SharpNET also features a thorough internet marketing portfolio. We intend to take advantage.
-Amie R.
Our primary focus with Sharpnet was their internet marketing service. We had a simple lead generation web site constructed, to help aid with lead generation. The internet marketing aspect has gone very well. We have increased our lead volumes every week, and this has already become a significant part of our overall business game plan. These Sharpnet leads are the best quality that we are receiving, and we are staffing up now to accommodate the increase volume. I am quite satisfied, or even giddy.

Highly recommended design and marketing resources. SharpNET has a unique one-stop-shop approach, without compromise. Both their design and marketing aspects are top notch, with incredible customer service to boot. We are very please with the results, especially with consideration of the price tag. Through our internet marketing campaign, our sales leads have more than doubled, while not compromising lead quality. Business growth in a bottle.
-Tim W
The SharpNET team has provided web design and internet marketing resources for Solve Debts for over 5 years. SharpNET has been a critical player for Solve Debts' ongoing success, and we have been very pleased and impressed at the effectiveness and professionality of SharpNET's work. We communicate on a daily basis, and SharpNET is fully integrated into our business plan. SharpNET is responsible for approximately 75% of all the sales our company generates, and we couldn't be more pleased. We highly recommend SharpNET for both your web design and internet marketing needs.

SharpNET Solutions, Inc. comments:
Thank you Andy, it has been a pleasure working with you and your team.
-Chris
I was referred to SharpNET through an associate who also had a great experience with them. Communications were excellent, both phone and email correspondence was prompt/immediate. My requests all received SharpNET's attention, and if they wanted to deviate from my request they would spend the time to explain why, and show examples. But they never implemented any changes without my approval. I was very active and closely involved with the development process, and communicated directly with the designer.
The final outcome was fantastic, I am very pleased. The entire process, and final product was so much more than I was expecting, we are placing our entire company identity behind this web site. I highly recommend SharpNET, expecially after paying less than 1/2 of what our other 2 quotes were. I would have gladly paid what these other companies were charging.
