10 Ways To Increase Sales By Promoting Yourself
Copyright © Stone Evans, The Home Biz Guy
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.
1. 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.
2. 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".
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Create and giveaway a free eBook. In the eBook include a section
called "About the Author". Also, include an advertisement for your
business.
6. 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.
7. 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.
8. 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.
9. 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.
10. 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 overdo it though; you want to keep them interested in your product.
