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
