Ten Must Do Tips To Increase Your Online Business
Topics: online business, business sales, product online, cross promoting, joint venturing
One. When your online business has made it’s first sale why not follow-up with the new customer. You could also follow-up with a “thank you” email and don’t forget to include an advertisement for the other products you sell. You should always follow-up every few months using your auto-responder.
Two. Create and send to your customers a catalog of add-on products for the original product they just purchased. This can be in the form of upgrades, special services, attachments, etc. If they have having value from your product and consider it worthy then the percentage of those that buy the extra add-ons will be really high.
Three. In any online business one of the most efficient methods that really works well is to up-sell to your customers. When they’re at your thank you page, tell them about a few extra related products or an upgraded version of the product you just sold. This is proven to drive up sales when you already have their trust and they can just add it to their original order.
Four. Tell your customers if they refer “x” number of customers to your web site and they also purchase products, the customer can have a full refund of their purchase price. This can turn one sale into three, four or more sales.
Five. Send your customers free products if you can with their product package (This is very easy to do with information products at no cost). The free gifts should always have your ad printed on them. In the offline world It could be bumper stickers, ball caps, t-shirts etc. This is called branding. People will see these products and some of them will go to your website and spend money. Don’t miss out on any opportunity to brand yourself.
Six. When you sell any product online always give your customers the option of joining the affiliate program so they can sell your product (which they now have faith in having just bought it). This will easily multiply the sale you just made and make the most of the goodwill you just earned for your online business by your great product and sales page.
Seven. Always sell the reprint/resell rights to your popular products. Always try to include an ad or ads in any info product you sell for other products you have for sale. You can always make sales for the reproduction rights and sales on the back end product.
Eight. Sell gift certificates for your products. People never know what to buy for loved ones and if they want to buy for someone they know i interested in your niche you’ll make sales of the gift certificate and when the recipient cashes it in they may well also buy other items from your web site which can only benefit your online business.
Nine. You should always consider cross promoting or joint venturing your product with other businesses’ products in a collaborative package deal. You can always include an ad for other products that you sell and have also this means you have other online businesses selling for your products.
Ten. When you deliver or ship out your product, include a coupon offering a discount for other products you sell. Always make sure they are related to the product the client just bought and your conversion rate will be really high.
