Your competitors are online... are you?

I was working with a small business owner recently who still didn't have a website, everything was running through WhatsApp.

Meanwhile, their competitors were showing up on Google, getting inquiries 24/7, and building trust instantly.

It made me think! How many businesses are still missing out just because they're not online?

Do you think having a website is still essential in 2026, or can social media alone be enough?
