As many as two million sole traders and small companies have missed out on \u00a31.5bn of Cyber Weekend online sales* in the past week according to the Department of Business, Innovation & Skills. As a result, www.nettl.com are offering \u00a350,000 of web development grants to 100 SMEs to help them get online. The \u00a3500 grants on offer are design to give smaller businesses the leg up they might need to start selling online.<\/p>\n

www.nettl.com, the new high street design studio, is supporting small businesses with a free one-hour consultation for up to 100 local small businesses in Birmingham, Manchester, Dublin and London and a \u00a3500 grant off a Nettl:Commerce online web shop before 23rd December 2014.<\/p>\n

Many of the UK\u2019s small and medium sized companies have so far missed out on the cyber spending in December due to their lack of online presence, and according to the Department of Business, Innovation & Skills more than half of customers (55%) say they find it hard to support local businesses when they simply can\u2019t find them online.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur clients tell us they know they need to sell online, but find it difficult knowing where to start. They hear about how expensive web development is and worry that they are going to get ripped off. It\u2019s our mission to remove the black magic and mystery of ecommerce and help small businesses to just start selling online,\u201d said Peter Gunning, CTO of Nettl.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo show our support for SMEs, we\u2019re offering any local business who signs up for a no-obligation consultation a \u00a3500 grant towards the cost of their web shop.\u201d<\/h2>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re so confident that our web shops will make a difference that we\u2019ll even offer clients the option to pay their website over 12 months, so that with just a few orders, they can cover their costs.<\/p>\n

\u201cChampioning small businesses is at the heart of Nettl\u2019s ethos.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you are a small business in Manchester, Birmingham, London or\u00a0Dublin, visit www.nettl.com to find your local studio and reference the \u00a3500 grants on offer.<\/p>\n
