Exactly. That website is the first stop for people unfamiliar with the company who are in search of more information. It doesn't hurt to utilize that to emphasize the next step in the journey.
And especially as it doesn't cost you an arm and a leg. It's a fairly basic WordPress site, so it shouldn't have. It must all have been part of a plan though. Don't think you'd get this up and running with the transfer of content this quickly - there's a plan being rolled out.
Which makes me wonder - just as a side-note - the company logo? There seems to be no reference to it other than in the older images and presentation that came from the previous site.
Anyway, let's see what unfolds. Or not.
All the best,
