Sage Pastel Accounting is offering small businesses a quick and easy way to get up-and-running with a Web site of their own with Sage Online Tools.
This powerful solution makes it simple for SMEs to create and maintain their own Web sites with a no-fuss site-builder with no Web design or coding experience necessary.

Getting started is as easy as signing up for the service and using its simple drag and drop tools to customise its appearance; to layout text, images, and videos; and link to your social media profiles.

Full e-commerce functionality can be added for as little as R2 500 upfront and a maximum monthly fee of R960. Sage Pastel has also made it easy for users of the system to write their own blogs and run email or SMS marketing campaigns with reports on the performance of the campaigns.

All sites built with Sage Online Tools are designed using the latest responsive technology, ensuring that the content is tablet and smartphone friendly. Hosting is free for Sage Pastel Accounting customers for standard websites and just R125 a month for companies that don’t use Sage Pastel products.

Sage Online Tools integrates with all Sage Pastel accounting products allowing e-commerce to seamlessly integrate with your accounting software. That means no more double entries from the accounting software to the online store. You will have up to date stock levels and pricing on your website as you make the changes in your accounting software.

Says Sebastian Phyfer, Sales Manager for Sage Online Tools: “Our solution frees you from relying on external designers and developers to keep your site up-to-date. It gives you a professional online presence that makes it easy for your customers to find you on the web. It creates a great impression of your business.”

“My job takes my full attention. But yet I like to control my own internet communication and website content. Sage Online Tools is the ultimate solution since it is so quick and easy to add content, change content or bring across instant marketing messages,” says Sue Heyman at MeHelpMe.

“Ever since I have used Sage Online Tools, my enrolments have increased drastically because the site is search engine optimised and the cross referencing of my site content have made my business easy to find on internet searches.”
