Though we design websites and databases for companies across the US and overseas, we do have an affinity for businesses in Sonoma County (California) since this is where most of our team is based. The County of Sonoma is not only a wonderful place to live and work, it also offers a variety of industries from high-end manufacturing, new technology to green energy innovation.

Population:

This year (2015) the population is forecasted to grow to about 520,000 residents (according to the California Department of Finance and the the US Census). Half of the population will be between the ages of 20 and 59 years. The percent of Sonoma County residents over the age of 25 with college degrees has grown recently thanks to new companies attracting new and young talents.

Industry:

According to the State of California’s Employment Development Department, business services and professional services  will experience the biggest growth compared to any other industries in Sonoma County between now and 2018. That is great news for our county: Existing companies expected to grow and hire more staff and new companies coming to Sonoma County.

Business to Business Industries:

If you own or manage a B2B business, that means more opportunities for you. There will be more companies for you to do business with.

What can you do to harness

the positive growth in Sonoma County?

Positive data is fantastic but you must find a way to make that information work for you and your business.

• Are you ready for growth?
• Do you want to grow?
• How will new companies find out about you?
• Do you have a plan for the next 5 years?

Local networking organizations are great for face-to-face meetings and introductions but, even though one may have met you at a local gathering, know that he/she will check out on the Internet. Everybody does!

You may see where we are going with this post… How does your website look? Does it have that professional appeal you desire? Does it make your company and team look like they can handle new business? Does your website look like you are up to date with technology?

If you answer maybe or no to any of these questions, you are simply not ready for the upcoming growth forecasted for Sonoma County. The team at BWC can help you. We are not only experts at website development, design and marketing, we also understand Sonoma County and how to make the Internet work for you and prepare your company for the next years of growth.
