Increase Sales Through Interaction on the Web

How many "informational newsletters" do you receive on a weekly basis? Out of those, how many do you really pay close attention to? How many websites do you go to where there is just information and pictures and it seems to take forever to go through all of the material?

The reality is that to review everything on every website or everything on every email could possibly consume your entire day therefore you usually only read the emails or review the websites that accomplish their points faster. If this is true with you, it sure is true with your potential clients. 9 out of 10 people that I talk to say that they have a low tolerance for websites or emails that don't reveal the main points fast. Most likely they will click over to another site or just plain ignore an email that is too lengthy to read and does not get to the point.

My tip to you is that if your company has a lot to offer and you feel it maybe time consuming to explain everything your company does, here are couple of solutions to consider:

1. Online Video - Due to advancements in internet technology, a short 30 sec. - 1 min. video is becomming one of the most popular ways to get your point across. Remember, a picture is worth 1000 words.
2. Email Tips - Everybody wants to become educated on something that is going to benefit them. Make it a habit to send your potential clients a small 1 sentence educational tip through email. Always remember to include a website link or a phone number in case they would like to learn more. People will appreciate that you are respecting their time by only giving them a small bit of information.
3. More Links - Creating more appropriate links to specific content that you would like your targeted website visitor to read increases the likelihood that visitors will click to the appropriate content. Even though it may seem redundent, it's saving them time while increasing the likelihood of a sales conversion.
   
4. Proper Contact Form Placement - If there is an area on your website that is longer than a few paragraphs, before they ready further, offer your visitor the opportunity to fill out an online form that submits directly to you so you can contact them directly to explain in further detail. Most people feel more at ease to talk to someone directly instead of trusting something they see on screen. You will find that you will receive more leads and convert more sales by doing this.
