If you have product photos or any other stock photos you can use one to again help showcase your brand.

CONTACT INFO:
Most important - don't forget your contact info. Include your phone, email and address if you operate from a premises.

GET SOCIAL:
Even if your website is not ready there is no reason not to start a social media campaign - in fact it is better to start early. Add your social media links to your coming soon page and encourage visitors to connect there to hear about the coming website.

Set up a mailing list and ask visitors to register to hear about your new website.
