Quick Creator Beta
One-click sites, also called Quick Creator, is currently a Beta product. When used to create a website, the Quick Creator takes you through a series of easy steps that make the process simpler and quicker. This means that you can set up the websites entering only the most basic information (such as information on your business, choosing a font and basis colour, etc), while leaving the bulk of the content to later stages. This is useful if you prefer to divide your workflows between design and content, for example.

Go-to market strategies
Vertical approach: If you have a lot of rich data on a specific vertical, you could first target them in order to try and make a low-price sale. If you can prove the return-on-investment early-on, and make the argument that a more robust site could provide even more results, then it can lead to an upgrade.
Low cost, authoritative data approach: You can focus on the sale as being an authoritative structure data source, so that they business is optimized for local search queries and voice search using the correct data about their business – all at a low cost (or free). Then later approach them on the websites establish trust / have transactional significance – making the argument for an upgrade
Bundling approach: You can bundle a website with other entry-level offerings, such as an online directory listing or management of a Google My Business listing. By bundling entry-level digital products, it’s a good way to attract/segway “print only”/non-website customers into the digital world.
Lead generation approach: Leverage a company’s e.g. Facebook page to auto-generate a website and show it to them as a preview of their website could look like. If they are interested, then they can purchase the site and add more content (for available fields) OR alternatively directly purchase a more advanced website offering.

Upgrade path
The basic positioning also makes Mono One-Click Sites an ideal target group for upgrades as their business grows. As the value of a One-Click Site is limited to establishing the SMBs’ digital presence, it is best to define a clear upgrade path of more value-adding website offerings. This can be done through for example, drip campaigns prompting the value of other digital offerings (e.g. scheduling) or quarterly check-ins with the SMB client.
