10 Great Ways To Nail Down Sales

1. End your slow sales periods by planning ahead.
Plan to add extra bonuses, hold a sale or package
your product with other products.


2. Make more commissions off the affiliate programs
you join by giving your personal endorsements for
the products. They usually pull more sales than ads.


3. Speed up your internet access. You can get your
online business tasks done faster which will help you
stay ahead of your competition.


4. Allow people who do not have time to explore
your site to download your web site in ebook format.
This will allow them time to view it offline.


5. Use tons of headlines and sub headlines on your
web site. This will keep their attention and keep them
at your web site longer.


6. Take advantage of popular fads. If something is
popular at the current time, put up a web site about
it. Just promote your main site on the fad web site.


7. Allow your prospects to chose between a retail
or wholesale price. Charge people a membership
fee to always get the products at wholesale cost.


8. Allow other related web sites that don't have a
chat room to link to yours. They'll get use of a free
chat room and you'll draw extra traffic to your site.


9. Increase the perceived value of your free stuff or
bonuses by including the retail dollar amount the
freebie would normally sell for.


10. Create your own web ring. You will gain highly
targeted traffic to your web site and others will link
to your site because they'll want to join the ring.

10 Resourceful Things You Can Do With A Product that Doesn¨t Sell

1. Sell the reprint/reproduction rights to the product.
You could make money selling other people the rights
to reproduce and sell the product. People are always
looking for new products to sell.


2. Giveaway the product for free from your web site.
Just because it won't sell doesn't mean people won't
visit your web site to get it for free. They may see
another product you sell and buy that one.


3. Try auctioning off the product at an online auction.
You may make part of your investment back. If you're
lucky, you may even make a profit because people
sometimes get into bidding wars and will bid a higher
price than the product is worth.


4. Use the product as a free bonus for another product
you sell. This will increase the perceived value of the
product you're selling. People will feel they're receiving
more for less.


5. Contact businesses with the same target market and
see if they would be interested in using your product as
a free bonus for their product. You could place your ad
on the product and get free advertising.


6. Sell your product to businesses at wholesale cost as
a promotional product. Businesses are always looking
for products they can giveaway to their customers with
their advertising on the product. You could make part
of your investment back.


7. Barter your product to other businesses for things
you need for your own business. You could trade for
their products or services. This will save you money
and help make up for your profit loss.


8. You could create an online contest so people could
win your product. This will attract traffic to your web
site. You also could get free advertising by listing it on
online contest directories.


9. If you decide to giveaway the product for free, allow
other people to giveaway the product for free. Place
your web site ad on the product. This will spread your
advertising and attract even more people to your site.


10. Ask businesses with the same target audience if
they would be interested in combining your product
with their product. You could then sell them together
as a package deal and split the profits. You may have
better results selling your product this way.
