Creating YOUR Top 10 List To Help You Sell More Of Your…
How would you like to be on the top of a best-seller list?
Well, then, why not create your own “best-seller list”and feature it prominently in your marketing efforts?
People buy what is popular.
The higher up on the best-seller list that an item is—i.e. the more “popular” that it becomes—the more that sales for the item will climb.
For example, if you own an ice cream parlor, create a best-seller list of the most popular flavors of ice cream that you sell.
Post the list at several highly visible locations.
When folks come in, watch the sales of your best-selling ice cream soar!
The power of suggestion helps people who do not knowwhat they want as well as those who are having trouble choosing what they want.
Many people just can’t make a decision
(sometimes even a life-saving decision), so why not help
them along by showing them what other folks like the best?
Some clients of mine (a husband-and-wife team who run a
carpet-cleaning service) were having trouble selling their service.
We created a best-seller list of the services that
the company offered by using good, better, and best offerings.
This list helped the couple’s prospects to choose the
services that they wanted based on what other people had done in the past.
The sales and profits on these “best-sellers” have increased dramatically.
This means that the sales and profits for the company
are up overall, which was our goal in the first place!

Re: Can you outsource your product launch?
- Yes that what I am talking about. Creating a buzz for your online product launch basically. Is this part of what you do?
Re: Email autoresponder messages: what delivery intervals?
- Sub-lists are primarily created around the products I own.
If my list A was about one topic, I will not promote
anything to that list about another topic until I
first have them opt-in to another list.
Example of this is, let's say you were interested in
internet marketing and you opted-in to a list for
driving traffic (List A).
I will not send information about product creation
tips to that list unless I first have you opt-in for
another list (List B).
These two may be close enough so that might not
be an issue, but what I find is most internet
marketers drive all their promotions to their
one and only list they own. So one day,
it's about teaching mom-pop offline businesses
about marketing, another day about oh let's market
on Facebook, next day about, hey I found great product
on promoting stuff on Mobile or cell phones, next
week, let's talk about Amazon's Kindle, then Pinterest...
You get what I mean.
If I have to do above, it will be after subscribers decided not
to buy any of my own products. Then I will send other
promos to that list.
But I think by minimum, it's good to create sub-lists for
buyers of your own products so that you can send
more advanced and higher end items exclusive to that
list.
Your advantage over others
- Sell using your USP - unique selling proposition.
Why should people buy from you, instead of your competitors?
Think about it, why are you so great?
It may be a hard question, but finding the answer can multiply the effectiveness of any advertising or marketing activities you undertake.
Re: Social Media & Digg, Google, MySpace, and YouTube
- Hi Kathy,
What I meant about it being worth it was in the sense that I described. Creating multiple accounts for various sites and posting and ranking your own stuff. It's very time consuming to say the least. I'm just wondering if there's anyone out there that has done this and thinks it's beneficial.
Re Thinking Smarter
- Hi Beat,
Thanks for sharing this win. It's inspiring to hear about.
Can you imagine what our life (and our businesses) could look like if we continued to open up to our creativity?
Every day becomes an exciting journey for us and even those around us.
Happy "Creating"...
Tami
