5 Ways To Beef Up Sales...Immediately
1) Create a custom social media campaign.
2) Add a customer loyalty program.
3) Start a referral program.
4) Include testimonials and reviews on your website and/or product pages.
5) Offer free shipping or coupons to boost sales.
6) Use a local newspaper as advertising medium.
7) Promote your product to local media representatives.
8) Work with a distributor or retailer who will help drive sales.
9) Use an email newsletter that people sign up for and receive your product discounts and specials.
10) Offer FREE samples of your product on social media websites such as Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest if you have a social media following.
11) Include an online video on your website or in blog posts that give more information about the product and/or the company behind it.
12) Create a virtual wait list for customers who want to be notified when your product is available again.
13) Consider buying advertising in local newspapers such as the The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, USA Weekend, and the New York Times.
14) Calculate how many customers you can serve with your current inventory and other products you produce and how much money it will cost to get those customers. Then determine what you can afford to spend on advertising/promotion as well as what is required for inventory and production costs (if any). Then figure out how much profit or money you can make off of each customer if they buy your product. If you can't make money off of a customer after the sale, you are unlikely to get another sale from that customer.
15) Run specials on your lowest cost product or services. Increasing sales of your least expensive product or service will help boost overall profits. This can be done through social media as well as email marketing.
16) Offer a special package for customers who purchase two or more of your products at the same time. This will help boost profit margins and sales by getting customers to want to buy multiple products, thereby helping keep them engaged with your company for longer periods of time instead of just making one purchase and leaving forever (particularly if they only wanted one of the items). You can also encourage repeat customers who purchase multiple times to help raise awareness and build your brand in the market.
17) Consider an affiliate program. This way you don't have to pay money to promote your products on social media, etc. Instead you pay a commission on any sales that are generated from clicks on your links or from products that you refer them to (i.e., Amazon, GNC, etc). Don't forget about Amazon for eBooks – they will work with you for some affiliate fees and other options if you promote their base products (which most sellers do).
Conclusion: Most business owners want to make money and if you can figure out how to do that using your products, then you will be on the right track to making sales. This is just another way of increasing sales, though, and it is one of the most effective ways of boosting your profits at a time when many businesses are struggling...so it has the potential to help make you money too!
