10 Power-Packed Ways To Spark Your Sales

By Hendra Subrata Liu

1. Spend money on targeted advertising instead of
mass media advertising. You don't want to waste
your ad dollars on people who aren't interested.

2. Increase your profits by concentrating on small
details. Improving small things like text size, color,
or graphics can really make a positive difference.

3. Keep your offers flexible. If you offer a set price
for your product, you could offer the people that
can't afford it an optional payment plan.

4. Offer your knowledge or consulting as a bonus
product. You could offer a free 15 or 30 minute
consultation. This will add value to your product.

5. Personalize all your e-mail messages so they get
read. Include the recipient's name in the subject line.
This will grab peoples attention quickly.

6. Keep your web site consistent. You don't want
to keep things on your web site that are unrelated
to the theme of your web site.

7. Attract more subscribers to your free e-zine by
giving them free bonuses like e-books, software,
online services and other incentives.

8. Sell advertising space in your e-zine and on your
web site. This will create an extra income stream
for your business.

9. Make your web site ready for the public. Have
an "About Us" page and clear descriptions of what
actions you want your visitors to take.

10. Don't just start advertising everywhere, plan out
your marketing. Locate places and publications that
your target audience would congregate around.

10 Proven Ways To Accelerate Your Profits

By Hendra Subrata Liu

1. Make copies of your web site in many different
languages. This'll allow foreign speaking people to
read your web site and advertisements.

2. Give your customers a surprise bonus for buying.
When you give customers more than they expect,
there is a good chance they will buy from you again.

3. Send greeting cards offline or online to customers
on holidays. You'll get the chance to increase your
orders by including your ad inside the card.

4. Market your products or services to your target
audience. For example, don't try to sell a football
in a cooking magazine.

5. Give people the option of buying other products
or add on products when they decide to buy your
main product or service at the point of sale.

6. Think of new ways to attract people to buy your
products or services. You could add on extra free
bonuses, delivery options, payments options, etc.

7. Give other businesses the option of selling your
product. It could be a simple joint venture deal or
an affiliate/associate program.

8. Follow-up regularly with all your prospects and
current customers. When people see your ad more
than once they are more likely to buy.

9. Learn sales ideas from reading and studying other
business' advertising and marketing material. It
could be ads, brochures, tv ads, sales letters, etc.

10. Educate yourself with new strategies to increase
your sales. You could take classes, subscribe to
e-zines and magazines, read books or ebooks, etc.
