I think the main answer to this, is that in this day and age a website is a must.
Since the website obtained from GDI is a personal one, and can be used for anything, this should be taken as a huge opportunity for any project the prospect may have had in mind.
Business (Gdi and/or any other)
Family (staying in contact as a lot of families are dispersed. A chance to show latest photos and more to share with family)
Personal (any other personal motivation)
I guess its all in the way you put it across that really matters.
Hope this helps

Rachel I totally agree with you...for I was just communicating this to friends and family who think that www is just email...shake me wake me...
And not just any site. Some of you guys have some really nice information, but your site is too busy...people don't want to spend a lot time falling asleep at their computer...
