Seven Critical Factors Of A Successful Business Web Site

In my work I visit a lot of business web sites. Some are great, others are not so great. What follows are a few observations and thoughts on the subject of “good” web sites.

The Internet is profoundly market driven.

The client/visitor “rules.” So be totally and absolutely responsive, absolutely courteous, respectful, enthusiastic and sensitive. Concentrate your efforts, wherever possible and practical, on finding and establishing frequent visitors. Then build a strong trusted relationship you can turn into meaningful future profit or strategic ethical advantage for your business.

Common sense, perhaps, but it seems that common sense is in short supply these days.

Close More Annuity Sales Leads

Most agents lose tons of sales because they are so obsessed with talking they forget to listen. They need to tell all about their products features and how great it all is. They can never wait to make their point about how much an annuity can yield. Product Product Product.

The problem is simple, the prospect just doesn’t care. The features of an insurance product are secondary and nothing more. Selling product features makes you an amateur. If you want to be an order taker, go to work for the bank, that is what the tellers do, follow and take orders. Focusing on the “selling of the product” is what bank clerks do, fill an order.

Fear Of Beginning A Home Internet Business

Most of us from one time or another have thought about working from home. Since the creation of the World Wide Web, many have been able to do just that. It is not a walk in the park like it is introduced on the web. No, it takes patience, effort, and failure. Yes failure. Most of us fail our first few endeavors.

How bad do you want to be your own boss?

Autoresponders - The Power Of Instance Access

In most traditional businesses you will likely find a receptionist who can either answer business specific questions or can route customers to the appropriate department for assistance. In more automated offices a voice mail system can alleviate much of the guesswork in locating the right department (although the process can seem a bit impersonal).

Some of the larger email companies also have manned phone lines, but for many ecommerce business owners the cost of hiring a staff to man the telephones may make a business startup next to impossible.

Take Care Of Your Customer And Your Pocketbook Will Follow

One of the most influential men in my career taught me the philosophy, “Take care of your customers and your pocketbook will follow”. He had built a multi-million dollar business selling parts for computers and cash registers using this simple philosophy.

He was a teacher and a businessman. He taught his employees and managers to take care of the customer’s needs, wants and desires and not to focus on the pennies. He felt that taking care of the customer would always pay off in the long run. He was right.

His customers rewarded him with their repeat business and loyalty to his company.

You Can Write Copy That Sells

Ever since I became a freelance copywriter, people have asked me how I do it. When talking about themselves, they say, “Oh I’m not creative” or “I know what I want to say, but I don’t know how to say it.” My reply is always, “just say it!”

We all know that good copy needs a structure; it needs to be in the right tone of voice and it needs to capture and hold the attention of the reader, inspiring them to act. To buy!
