5 Ways To Convert More Visitors Into Sales

August 31st, 2008 · No Comments

Though you may generate thousands of visitors every 24 hours, if you fail to convert them into successful purchases, your hard work will be useless.  Here are 5 techniques you can use to immediately increase your web conversion rate.

1.    Scorchingly interesting headlines.  Internet users have grown impatient in this day and age.  It’s quite easy for them to go to another website whenever they encounter something even remotely boring in your very web page.  The trick is in catching their attention fast.  This can be achieved with well-written headlines.  Headlines, after all, are the first lines of text that your prospects will see when they firsr arrive at your page.  If they’ll enjoy what they’ll encounter, they’ll hang around.  If not, they’ll abandon your page just as quickly as they came.

2.    Easy-to-scan copy.  You’d think that with the growing popularity of the net, more and more users will be used to reading.  The contrary, however, is what is prevalent.  People easily get tired reading, what with the cumulative number of information they are exposed to with each and every session of their web experience.  The secret is in making it easy for them to read your sales copy.  Use numberings and bullets as much as you can.  Guarantee your copy easy to scan.  Prepare your sales copy for an impatient audience and you’ll be rewarded greatly.

3.    Benefit-oriented selling.  Your visitors will buy based on emotions and justify based on logic.  Don’t push the technical specs of your product for your audience to see.  Instead, inform them of the advantages they can enjoy from what you’re selling.  Share with them what they stand to gain.  This is a surer way of stirring up their desire to acquire your product.  Share the features later on, as your audience will need such data to justify the purchase they will be planning to make.

4.    Urgency marketing.  Force your prospects to buy from you as soon as possible.  Don’t make them to think too much, as you might lose some sales.  Use one time offers, special offers, and many other time-sensitive models to bait them into buying your product at the soonest possible time.

5.    Use interactive options in your sales copy.  Your sales letter doesn’t have to be a formulaic, direct staement of your offer.  You can implement interactive devices that will push your readers to make an emotional investment on your business.  Ask for their thoughts.  Better yet, supply them with multiple options for potential answers.  Add calculator scripts that they can manipulate.  Make them believe that they are a part of the sales page.
