10 Ways To Increase Sales By Promoting Yourself
by Bill Brine
People will feel more comfortable purchasing your products if you give them a
little information about yourself or business. The information could be your
profile, employee profiles, overall business history, education credentials,
awards you've won, etc. Below are 10 ways you can use to promote yourself.
-
Teach a free chat room class on a subject
related to your business. You could install a chat room on your web site or
use a free one from another web site. Before the class starts tell them a
little about yourself.
-
Publish a free e-zine. Use some of the extra
space in your e-zine to write about yourself or business. This could be
called "A Note From the Editor".
-
Publish a section on your web site called
"About Us". With your information you could also include pictures.
This shows people you're not hiding behind your business.
-
Write an article on your area of expertise.
Include a resource box at the end of the article. You can add information
about yourself in the resource box. E-mail the article to web sites or
e-zines that accept article submissions.
-
Create and giveaway a free ebook. In the ebook
include a section called "About The Author". Also, include an
advertisement for your business.
-
Participate in online communities like
newsgroups, discussion boards, e-mail discussion lists and chat rooms. You
will meet many people and in return they will get to know you.
-
Donate your time, products, or services to
charities. You can list the charities you've contributed to on your web
site. This will show visitors that you and your business care about others.
-
Promote yourself offline; teach a free class
offline, speak at business seminars, join a business club or association.
Assemble fundraisers for charity. These are just few ideas to promote
yourself offline.
-
Offer free consulting to your visitors. You
could do it via e-mail or phone. They will get to know you and feel more
comfortable buying your products.
-
Publish information about yourself and business
history in your ad copy. While people are reading it they begin to trust you
and your business. Don't over do it though, you want to keep them interested
in your product!
