Multiply Your Sales
Would you like to multiply your web site sales? Or course you
would, who wouldn't? :) Then take a close look at the following
10 killer ways to multiply your sales... 1. When you make a
sale, always follow-up with the customer. First you should
follow-up with a "thank you" email. Then, a few days later, you
can follow-up up and as them if they are satisfied with their
purchase or if they have any questions. After a certain time,
you should follow-up and ask them for their feedback, good or
bad and possibly for a testimonial. All your follow-up messages
can include a small advertisement for other products you sell.
If you use a fn automated system to do this, it will not even
take a minute of your time to do all the follow-ups. 2. You
could upsell to your customers. When they're at your order page,
tell them about a few extra related products you have for sale.
They could just add it to their original order. Or you can
upsell your visitors from a standard version to a professional
version of your product or service. 3. Tell your customers if
they refer four customers to your web site, they will receive a
full rebate of their purchase price. This will turn one sale
into four sales. This can be easily done placing a
refer-a-friend form on your order "thank you" page. 4. When you
sell a product, give your customers the option of joining an
affiliate program so they can make commissions selling your
product. This will multiply the sale you just made. For
example... do that in one of your follow-up messages mentioned
in the first point above. 5. Sell the reprint/reproduction
rights to your products. You could include an ad on or with the
product for other products you sell. You could make sales for
the reproduction rights and sales on the back end product. You
could also product licenses in bulk at a discounted rate to
resellers. Then they can sell it at retail price and keep to
profit. 6. You could cross promote your product with other
businesses' products in a package deal. You can include an ad or
flyer for other products you sell and have other businesses
selling for you. This is a great way to joint venture with other
businesses as it is mutual beneficial for both sides. 7. When
you ship out or deliver your product, include a coupon for other
related products you sell in the package. This will attract them
to buy more products from you. Of course you can also include
coupon codes in one of your follow-up emails. 8. Send your
customers a catalog of add-on products for the original product
they purchased. This could be upgrades, special services,
attachments, etc. If they enjoy your product they will buy the
extra add-ons. If you create an online catalog for delivery by
email (again, this is good for another follow-up email), I
recommend to use Adobe Acrobat to create a PDF catalog. This way
your customers will be able to read it, no matter what operating
system they use on their computer. 9. Sell gift certificates for
your products. You'll make sales from the purchase of the gift
certificate, when the recipient cashes it in. They could also
buy other items from your web site. To do that online, you could
simply send the customer a personal coupon code, that they can
on to the lucky person. 10. Send your customers free products
with their product package. The freebies should have your ad
printed on them. It could be bumper stickers, ball caps,
t-shirts etc. This will allow other people to see your ad and
order. Online you could give them free versions or trial copies
of your other products, together with their paid product.
