In today’s competitive business world, small businesses need a strong online presence to stand out. But it can be challenging to navigate the world of digital marketing today, especially because of how fast and how often it changes. That’s where we can help. PSPINC has been helping customers thrive online for over 20 years for all of their technology needs from hosting their website with Dreamersi to helping them market their business online.

 

When a local piano lesson studio, Kayo Piano Studio, came to us wanting to increase their piano student number, we helped them set up and monitor their Google Ad campaign, which culminated in a 125% increase in piano students in just one year. But our team does more than just help businesses set up their campaign; they help better optimize existing Google Ad campaigns as well! Take RakiRaki Ramen’s case, for example. After our team looked over their previous ad campaigns, they consolidated and made other recommendations, which resulted in a 229% increase in conversions in just two months! So, what are you waiting for? Sign up for one of our marketing plans to get started!

 

While technology continues to be innovative and incredibly helpful to businesses today, the one area in the industry that technology still hasn’t fully captured is the customer service market. Chatbots and robotic answering machines have become popular in the last few years, but the biggest pain point in the customer service space continues to persist. Customers are still frustrated throughout the customer service process, even more so with automated answering machines.

 

• Limited functionality: Chatbots are great at resolving routine questions, but they’re not built to answer complex questions. They can only respond based on the data they’ve been trained on, which generally excludes customers who need more advanced help.
• Lack of Empathy: When a chatbot responds with “Great! I’m happy to help!” to a customer’s frustrated comments, it creates an overall irritating experience for them. But situations like this arise frequently when dealing with a chatbot because they fail to understand human emotions.
• Bad Reputation: Because of how frequent frustrating experiences have been with chatbots over the years, people have now begun to hate them. Their infamy therefore can lead people to avoid using them at all.
• Maintenance: Building a custom chatbot is both challenging and pricey. However, even when using pre-built chatbots available online, maintaining them with regular updates and bug fixes takes a lot of time and effort, adding to your list of expenses in the long term.

When you break it down, a website is just a bunch of files (images, text, code, etc.) that come together to create a website. However, for a website to connect to the Internet, it needs to rent space, so to speak, on a powerful computer that is always connected to the Internet called a server. This is what’s called web hosting. Today, websites connect companies to their customers, and a reliable web hosting provider ensures your website is always available 24/7, making it crucial for businesses today.

Luckily, we here at PSPINC have decades of experience helping businesses with all of their web hosting needs! We custom-created our Dreamersi web hosting in 1996 so we could customize our offering to our customers.

It’s more important than ever for businesses today to reach a wider audience, especially if you’re looking to take your company global. Localization can help you do just that by adapting your products and services to different cultures and languages. Contrary to popular belief, localization is about more than just translating content from one language to another. It also includes:

 

1. Website design and development: Designing and developing websites that are culturally appropriate for different markets.
2. Content creation: Creating content that’s relevant to different cultures.
3. Marketing and SEO: Marketing your products and services to different markets and optimizing your website for search engines for different markets.

 

By making your products and services more accessible to foreign markets, it’ll help grow your sales and build a positive brand reputation. Our localization experience began in the 90s when we were originally known as “Double Byte Specialists” and localized and licensed software between the U.S. and Japan.

 

Today, we use our two decades of expertise to help small businesses reach their Japanese customers with custom development, custom design, and marketing services. If you’re looking to do the same, look no further! Get started by requesting a free consultation with us by heading over to our Localization Services page. We hope to hear from you soon.

 

In September, Apple released iOS 18 with numerous exciting features. Soon after, we reported the update broke IMAP connections when using the default Apple Mail app, causing users to lose access to their email, primarily for users who rely on third-party email providers, like those with custom domains or using business email services. However, the issue doesn’t entirely spare personal accounts either.

 

Unfortunately, even months later, the problems persist and Apple still hasn’t made an official statement to address the IMAP connection problems. A quick fix for this issue is downloading and setting up an alternate mail client since it only seems to affect the Apple Mail app.
