If your website is unprofessional or does not meet expectations from a design perspective then your audience may not trust your company, if it is slow and difficult to find what they want they may leave before getting in contact or completing their order.
This means, between a well-designed website that a customer finds easy to use and a poorly designed one can be the difference between success and failure online.
