5 must do things for business

You don’t have to be a marketing expert or digital wizard to run a successful business—but there are some things every Christian business owner must do in 2025 if they want to be taken seriously and serve people well.

These aren’t just “Christian things”—they’re smart, practical business habits that honor God and actually help you grow.

1. Respond Quickly (Seriously—Pick Up the Phone)

If someone calls your business, they’re interested in what you offer right now. If you miss that call and don’t call back for a few hours—or worse, the next day—you might have already lost the opportunity.

Same with emails and contact forms. People are busy, and attention spans are short. The faster you respond, the more likely you are to earn their trust (and their business).

Don’t let good leads go to waste because you were slow to reply.

2. Ask for Reviews

You may not love review sites, but your next customer is probably checking them. Asking for reviews—especially from happy customers—makes a big difference.

You can do this manually or use a reputation management tool to request reviews automatically and filter out the not-so-great ones. Either way, positive feedback builds credibility.

3. Follow Up—Even When It’s Awkward

Someone asked for a quote but hasn’t responded? Follow up. Someone said they’d “think about it”? Check in a few days later.

Following up doesn’t make you annoying—it makes you professional. Most people appreciate a simple reminder, especially when life gets busy.

4. Know What Makes You Different

If your website or social media says “quality work and fair prices,” congratulations—you sound like everyone else.

Figure out what sets you apart. Is it your faith-based values? Your one-day turnaround? Your deep care for families and community? Whatever it is, say it clearly and often.

5. You Need a Website (Yes, Even Now)

It’s 2025. If you don’t have a website, you’re invisible to half the people who might want to work with you. Social media pages are fine, but they’re not a substitute for a real, professional site.

Your website is your home base. It’s where you can showcase your services, testimonials, and values. And yes—it needs to be mobile-friendly, fast, and optimized for search engines.
