The following are 10 simple yet very powerful ways to
increase your sales significantly:

1. When you make your first sale, follow-up with the
customer. You could follow-up with a “thank you” email and
include an advertisement for other products you sell. You
could follow-up with them regularly. The goal is to begin
building a relationship with your customers so you need to
keep in constant contact with them.

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.

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 three sales.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

There you go. The great thing about these powerful
strategies is that you can implement them immediately. As I
said, they are easy to start using but the outcome could be
a substantial increase in your conversion and/or buy rate
which is the ultimate goal. It is extremely important to
make your customer and/or prospect feel special and to
provide them with additional value-added items that will
keep them coming back.

 Successful Online Fire Sale Explained
A fire sale, essentially, is a sale in which during the first couple days the product can be found at an extremely low and appealing price.
