The latest T&A question of the month survey results found that 52.4% of respondents generate at least part of their turnover using the “information superhighway.”
A further 28.56% of respondents said they saw the Internet as a useful advertising opportunity. 11.9% said they made most of their revenue selling and advertising online. Furthermore, a number of respondents in this group said left comments saying they expected income generated through their online systems to increase.
Only 7.14%, by far the smallest proportion of respondents, said they were negative about using the Worldwide Web for tyre sales. This group described the Internet as “overrated.” All voters who left contact details received a free copy Chris Barling and Bruce Townsend’s book “Selling Successfully Online: 120 Top Tips for Running an E-commerce Web Site.”
