Are Your Airbrush Products Selling? If So, Here Are 3 Ways To
Further Skyrocket Sales!
One of the biggest challenges faced by airbrush artists are
proof of what you say is true! The potential customer is going to
find it hard to believe you. Whether it is, if you can do the
work, whether they think you are charging them too much, or it is
simply that you are artistic, potential customers are going to
find it hard to trust you.
Ask satisfied customers to leave a Testimonial
If you can convince the customer to trust you, then it will be
easier for you to make money airbrushing. So how do you get a
potential customer to trust you? Well the most powerful way to
get them to trust you is by testimonials. There is limit as to
what you can say about yourself, without looking too arrogant!
But when someone else says it, or if you prove yourself by
"demonstration", making money is yours for the taking, and, it
will be on your terms. So when customers buy from you, get them
to write about the service you have given.
Use Stuff Ins to increase sales
Apart from customers giving you testimonials, you can do other
things when customers start buying your products. If you have a
booth or stall or any walk in store and put products in the bag
for customers, you should include "stuff ins". Stuff ins are
advertising flyers/brochures that promote something from your
store.
Use information literature about products that require more
detailed information before a buying decision is made. Announce
special sales or give away coupons. Whatever you do, remember
that this is FREE distribution of your advertising. You have
plenty of space to say what you want. Use it to educate your
customer and get them back to buy more. This type of advertising
is practically free. And it is effective, because it goes to your
best customers, the ones who are buying from you now.
If you sell online, include your flyers in with orders. For
example, lets say you have a small package. You will be able to
include all sorts of advertising literature (catalogues,
brochures, flyers ect) AT NO EXTRA CHARGE. And because they are
going to be your best customers, they are likely to get the best
possible response. Try it, and don't be surprised if your sales
double.
Keep a mailing list of your customers
The most important part of being in business is to keep a
mailing of your customers. A customer mailing list is a list of
customers that are at your fingertips that you can sell your
product to.
It is always important to keep adding to this. The more
customers in your mailing list, the more successful your business
is going to be.
Why is it important to have a mailing list?
Well for starters, a good customer mailing list can be used to
call on to help you make more money. If you know some important
details of customers who have purchased from you in the past, you
can give them what they want. You will also get them to buy
again, and again and again. For example, knowing when your
customer's birthday is, you can then send them a greeting card,
wishing them a happy birthday. Included in the card, you can
offer them a gift voucher worth $10 to be used on any products or
services you have to offer. The customer will be happy because he
has received a gift voucher. However, he/she will be even happier
that you have remembered his/her birthday. There is nothing more
important to a person than that feeling of being special. Doing
this you would have achieved two goals. The first goal is to keep
your customers happy. The second is to build the trust with your
customer so that you can make more money when you require it.
How to start your mailing list
A simple way to start your customer mailing list, is to make
sure you collect every customer's contact details who buys from
you. For leaving their details, give them a 10% off voucher for
their next purchase. Another simple way, which can be used to get
your details of customers is to offer a prize. For example,
"Enter our draw to win $500 worth of airbrushed products!"
Everyone loves to enter into a prize to win something! You will
have a list of customers ready to give you money in the future in
no time.
Make sure you get major details from customers like name,
address, phone number, email, birthday and any other information
you think is necessary to get them buying from you in the
future.
