How To Attract Customers For Your Books

By Abraham Lowe


If you are looking for some guidance when it comes to your online book business, but don't feel like shelling out hundreds of dollars on a consultant, than you have come to the right place. Our tips and tricks are tried and tested ideas sure to work in stimulating your business today!

Grab attention for your website by offering special drawings and raffles. Offer high-priced books for the price of an inexpensive raffle ticket. This will get customers looking at your book product and will excite them about your store. It will also increase traffic to your website.

If you have different online book stores, keep them in competition with each other to beat the other's lowest price. Since they come from the same inventory then competitions like these will only drive sales. Incentives like $free shipping at some stores will be more successful than other stores not offering that service.

A non-traditional way of satisfying local customers is to deliver the books and install them, in case the book product necessitates installation. The other way to satisfy them would be to demonstrate a book product on the site so that they get satisfied about it and make a decision to buy.

For you to appear serious you may consider sending postal mails to your clients. This is because postal mails, unlike electronic mails, will cost you some money and this may be taken by the clients to mean you are interested in them. Emails of late have lost significant value.

When updating your website get into the habit of double checking to make sure all of your changes were integrated correctly. You don't want customers to come across any dead links or broken functions. Also always make sure your website is short and sweet and that the customers are satisfied.

By offering customers reasonable shopping incentives you make them more excited to purchase from you. One such incentive could be to be entered into a drawing for one mega prize with each purchase made.

Your book product descriptions should stand out from the page with vivid language and accurate details. If you sell used books, be sure and honestly note the condition that the item is in. If your descriptions aren't good enough, you could have some unhappy customers wanting their money back.

Customers like to know who they're buying from. One great way to do this is to make a "About Us" page on your website detailing information about your store. When customers email you make sure to reply to their messages promptly and courteously so they feel like they're getting personalized service.

Keep the design simple and clean. Provide your visitors with information, or path to the information or resources you know they are looking for. Include business phone numbers on every page of your site. Incorporate Trust icons like awards and associations, testimonials and reviews to build trust with your website visitors and customers.
