Metrics and feedback. Here's a simple idea: create a separate google voice number for the business and put that on the website, then forward it to the existing biz line. That way you can track which business comes from the web site. Similarly, try implementing web-only specials and promotions (even if only superficially different) so you can track the effectiveness of the web site.

Good idea; just make sure to check that Google Voice allows that kind of commercial use before hanging a business off it.
