Quick answerFor a business owner, the more useful question is what customers need to do before choosing you.
Signal 01
People may find a business through search, a recommendation, a social profile, or a directory.
A clear website gives them a place to understand services, compare details, see how to get in touch, and find the next step. It does not guarantee more sales, but it can reduce confusion when customers are evaluating options.

The need is specific, not automatic
A business with straightforward services and accurate information may need a focused set of pages. Another may need booking, a catalogue, or e-commerce. Some owners can build and maintain a site themselves; others prefer help with structure, responsive design, or updates. The right investment depends on customer needs, available time, and project scope.
Check your current site: Can a new visitor explain what you offer? Is the information current? Does the contact path work on a phone? If not, there may be a practical improvement to make—whether by updating the site yourself or working with a designer.
