Kenyan businesses are losing KSh 2 million every month because their website looks like a 2005 brochure. The fix? A modern redesign that triples enquiries. Here’s how one Nairobi boutique turned silence into sales in 30 days.
Why Your Current Site Is Costing You Sales
Your site may be turning away customers while you sleep. A Nairobi restaurant lost KSh 500,000 in a single month because the booking form was broken. That loss is avoidable.
