Gina O'DanielHow to increase sales has been a question of the ages for businesses of all sizes. Before there was a world-wide web, reaching markets across the country or overseas for most small businesses was only just a pipe dream, now it is an everyday reality.
If you think your website is just an online store, think again.
Your website is a powerful brand statement as well as an extended ad for the products and services that you offer. Much like a magazine or catalog, it entices readers with information they can use, invites them to learn more about your products and services, and motivates them to buy from you.
Below are some tips for getting your web viewers to act when they get to your site:
- Keep your web copy brisk and concise.
- Use statements that encourage your audience to click on different links.
- Use subheadings to break up your copy (but not so many of them that your page becomes cluttered).
- Give your site a personality that reflects well on your brand.
- Keep your site professional.
- Be unique … don’t try to sound like everybody else
