CREATE A BLAZING
INFERNO OF PROFITS
Whether you run a brick and mortar store front,(off-line store), or you
are an internet marketer, everyone knows that profits are what
it’s all about. If your business is not producing profits
then you are not going to be in business for very long. That is unless
you are independently filthy rich and have nothing better to do with
your money. How do we increase profits, well the two basic ways come to
mind. We could increase the selling price or we could increase the
number of sales. It is my opinion that the second choice is the best
and more acceptable method to choose. Selling your product or service
for a fair market value as opposed to an over inflated price will draw
more attention, therefore raising the opportunity for increased sales.
The marketer that over inflates the selling price stands a better
chance of driving away the market wise shopper. See if the following
thoughts are not fuel for that blazing inferno.
When constructing your website or community image, establish the image
that you are a real person not just another website, or corner store.
Start by creating a profile page or an about us page where you can
write a short informational paragraph about yourself and or your
family, include a picture of yourself, and a history of your experience
in your field of business. This could also be done with a press release
as well.
Everyone loves to gain more knowledge, even about things they already
know so you could publish your own e-book and give it away for free on
your site as well as in your free e-zine or free news-letter. This
should increase your site traffic, subscribers, and sales, which as we
said, more sales equals more profits.
Really stoke those flames with multiple streams of income on your site
by promoting affiliate programs, selling your own products and you
could even sell advertising space, and have a Google AdSense program on
your site.
When you are selling your own products remember to research the market
first before creating those products. Without any demand for your
product you will not have sales.
Do not overwhelm your customers by having too many products or services
on your site at one time. In many cases too many choices drives
customers away do to confusion of which item to buy, instead of making
a sale. If you have a large variety of items to offer try displaying
them on your site in a rotating fashion.
Also remember you can place items on your “Thank
Page”, which will become your immediate backend sales. Make
these high profit impulse items, items that your customer will feel
they can not do without.
Establish your credibility by always having a “Contact
Page”, the more ways of contacting you that you give your
customers the more apt they will come to trust you and continue to
return to your site and buy from you.
You should always promote what you are selling in all the content and
free give a-ways on your site . Should visitors to your site not read
your sales pitch they will most often read your free offerings. Any
downloadable written informational item that you give a-way should
always be branded with link backs to your site and products.
Along with the idea of creating your image as a person keep in mind
that even customers like to be complimented from time to time.
Therefore in the construction of your sales page and within the content
of your website be sure to strategically place general compliments to
your customers, this will place them in a good mood and you will win
their trust, thus inspiring them to buy from “you”.
Be sure not to forget to always use the “P.S.” in
your ad copy. This serves as a multifunctional tool for any ad copy,
where you will have your “call to action” phrase,
your “major Free Bonus”, and or repeating a very
“strong benefit” of doing business with you.
So what do you think, will these methods stoke that blazing inferno of
profits for you if used properly? Should you doubt their importance
even slightly just take a look at the more successful marketers,
whether on-line or off-line and see just how many of these marketing
methods they utilize in their ad campaigns, direct mail ad copy, in
store signs, or what ever advertising media they use. I have seen all
these methods find success over my thirty-three years in retail sales.
