7 Strategies in Magnifying your Sales

Leave a reply

To gain a bigger slice of the pie, consider these seven (7) boosting strategies that would surely magnify your sales:
• Giving your product a distinctive public persona.
Promote your product and make them instantly identifiable that customers would easily remember them. In this way, you’ve boosted your sales and brand recognition.
• Giving your products with interesting history.
Many of the customers are willing to buy products with an informative history background. You don’t have to make it lengthy; you’ll bore your customers to death with that!
• Creating a catchy melody for your products’ praises.
I really do believe catchy jingles could hook into the minds of the people. Psychologically, it affects us. Such melodies drive us to react and engage ourselves to the tone, causing us to sing along, even out of the blues! Customers would easily remember your products, this way they are bound to buy more.
• Repackaging of products.
Aside from catchy jingles, repackaging your product is one of the elements that will set your business apart from others, and your choice of colors will set your product apart from your competitors’ products. The colors you choose should send the right subliminal messages to inspire any potential customer to buy your product.
• Consumables, taking the lead.
Drop the price of your product, then promote and sell its consumables. Computer printers can be bought for as little as $20, yet the ink cartridges sell for $29 apiece. So don’t worry about making a big profit on devices, let your consumables take the lead.
• Viral Marketing.
Marketing buzz are buzzwords referring to marketing techniques that use pre-existing social networking services and other technologies to produce increases in brand awareness or to achieve other marketing objectives (such as product sales) through self-replicating viral processes, analogous to the spread of viruses or computer viruses (cf. Internet memes and memetics).
• Customizing products.
Giving your customers options that suites to their likings with customized versions of your products will add a boost in the increase of sales.

Internet contributed a lot in the world of business. As innovation and technologies evolved, small business owners are now able to reach global market inexpensively, selling anything from apparel, collectibles, to computer software, services, and coaching.
If you want your small business boost its sales, you should take advantage on whatever the internet has offered to you.
Here are 5 effective and reliable ways to increase your online sales:
1. Offer one product or service on your home page.
If you are selling a number of products or services on your website, I recommend you test whether or not this is the best strategy for you.
It’s all about focus. If you offer just one product – or one set of related products – the customer could focus on the key set of benefits. You don’t have to stop selling your other products – you can always offer to your customers from other web pages or by using follow-up offers.
2. Add impact to your promotions with hover ads.
Pop –ups have been very useful, online marketing tools for years. They are the small windows containing a special offer or other information that sometimes “pop up” when you visit a website. But pop-ups are quite irritating to some of the visitors, and internet users have the prerogative to choose whether or not they want to view the pop-ups.
We have discovered a very impressive technology that actually lets you use ads that behave like pop-ups but that aren’t pop-ups – they won’t get blocked. They are called hover ads, and they are worth testing on your site. Sales could increase by 162% when using hover ads. These ads are effective because they put important information, such as your opt-in offer or a special limited-time promotion, right in front of your targeted visitors.
3. Remove any references to “buying” from the top fold.
Net surfers usually go online looking for free information; so you first need to get them interested in what you have to say by relating to a problem they’re facing, and how you can solve it. If you start sales pitch too early, you might lose your potential customers before you’ve had the chance to hook them.
4. Boost your products’ desirability by adding images.
Placing images of your products make them seem more “real” to you visitors. But sometimes revealing them too early in the sale process can decrease the sale.
Testing is needed if you’re going to use this tip. By carefully analyzing sales during each test, you’ll learn exactly where and when to place product images for maximum impact.

3 Easy Ways to Get You Started in Increasing Your Sales

You must be that eager to master the Midas’ touch since you’ve reached this article. And I bet you’re willing to learn hundreds or thousands of sales techniques to induce the customer to purchase more expensive items, upgrades, or other add-ons in an attempt to make a more profitable sale. You don’t have to worry. Here, you only have to learn three easy sales techniques that guarantee customer satisfaction and more profitable services.

  1. Go Supersize!

The real marketing term would be UPSELLING, but I bet “SUPERSIZE” caught much of your attention, and it sounds more interesting than upselling. Upselling usually involves marketing more profitable services or products but can be simply exposing the customer to other options that were perhaps not considered.

One example I could give you would associates an incident in McDonalds. Every time you finished delivering your order, they would always say “Would you like to SUPERSIZE that?”

That phrase would give us the instinctive response, “YES!”

After all, for a few cents more we’re getting nearly twice the amount of fries and beverages. It convincingly gives us a good deal.

In connection with this, when your costumers start reaching their pockets or wallets, that’s the perfect timing you need to shell out just few more bucks to sweeten the deal. 50% would say YES without any second thoughts. It’s the best time to offer upgrades or extra warranties.

  1. After-the-Sale Offers

A customer, who is happy with the product and service you’ve provided the first time, is much more open for the second experience. Believe it or not, first impressions last. So better treat first-time customers extra care, but don’t neglect your regular customers also.

  1. Reward Referrals

Many businesses grow by second-hand information. If you want yours to be one of them, consider giving people incentives to get the word out about your business. This is one way to motivate people to keep the kind words–and business–coming.

Offer personal gifts to your loyal customers. The gesture need not be repeated every time they refer someone; if they make several referrals let them know that the gift is to thank them for their ongoing support.

Create a referral discount system. One way to get customers to spread the word about your business is to give them a discount on products or services in return.

Give referrals. Sometimes, you have to give to get. By sending your customers to other local businesses (and letting those businesses know you did so), you’re making a favorable impression on those businesses. They’re likely to remember your generosity and do the same when they come across potential customers for you.

See how easy these three sales techniques are? Try it yourself; you’ll be very much surprised on how easy it is to increase your marketing effectiveness.
