The Lutho system provides for the content (such as news, product listings, photos and documents for download) to be easily self-managed by the clients without the frustration of waiting for a web developer to make the changes for you.

Any business immediately puts themselves and their company on a different level when they can include a website address like www.yourname.com and an email address like info@ yourname.com on their business card. It is critically important that their business convinces their clients and investors alike that they can trust the company and that their company means business. SME owners should not settle for a freemail account or a webpage under someone else’s website. Small business owners need to instill credibility from the start.

Consumers and the public expect any credible business to have a website. Suppliers and consumers want to be able to access information on your business and products fast. SME owners must understand that a website can be used for much more. Savvy entrepreneurs are using their websites to build strong and solid relationships with their customers, to cut down on client support queries and to enhance their status as thought leaders in their industry by frequently publishing content such as news articles, frequently asked questions and documents for download on their website.

The Lutho System enables SMEs to update their own website easily, quickly and as frequently as they want to keep the information relevant. A website must change and grow as the business does. The internet is the best medium to showcase your products and services to the world and can be used very effectively to reach new customers and markets through a company website.

“We understand that entrepreneurs want to focus on their businesses. Who wants to choose between different technologies, capacities or platforms for their website or struggle with domain name registrations and hosting setups?” asks Hanru Nienaber, CEO of Lutho.com. Having a website built using a traditional website developer take a lot of time. Lutho.com understands that their clients want results fast and cannot afford to wait for weeks on end for a developer to build their site or to make even the smallest of changes.

With the Lutho System you simply follow a 5-step wizard that collects business information such as your contact details and welcome message and aesthetic information such as your chosen template and color scheme. The software is extremely easy to use and requires no technical or design skills. The Lutho system automatically takes care of all the technical aspects in real-time so that you can start using your new email address and website immediately.

SME owners don’t need to dig deep into their pockets to be able to afford a Lutho website. Every small business owner knows the importance of limiting expenses and cash outflows to the minimum. SME owners will be able to avoid the upfront outlay (often R10 000) that developers charge to build a website. Lutho charges a low monthly subscription fee of R145 which includes everything you need to have a professional website and email address up and running and since there are no minimum contract terms, clients are free to cancel their subscription at any time.

SME owners can also decide, at an additional once-off cost, to have Lutho.com’s personnel handle the process of building their website for them using the Lutho system or if they decide they need expert advice, training or design work done, Lutho offers the service of expert consultants.

This Lutho System will transform the way SMEs find their way onto the Internet and contribute to their success. SME owners that would like to learn more about Lutho’s solution are welcome to contact the company’s call centre at +27 11 021 4353 or visit the company’s website.
