So entrepreneur, do you have or are you planning on getting (at some point), your very own state of the art WordPress blog and or website? Great! Now your next (immediate) order of business is, “how” the heck are you going to inexpensively and strategically increase your online sales?
Because by now, you’re probably had it up to here with the free ebook/free blank step video boot camp deal,correct? And “who” could blame you. If you have to suffer through one more boring (as hell!) pitch fest, semi cleverly disguised as some so called educational content.
Your head might explode! But fear not; because the following (totally quick), non techie quick fixes, can and should be put in place by you, within the next forty eight hours or less!
And start helping you increase your long term profits soon after!
You Implement These Three Simple Changes And You’ll Dramatically Increase Your Long Term Online Sales Potential!
1.) Simple proven change # one: This first proven (long term) money making suggestion, comes from the one and only -perennial six figure earner Christina Hills (aka) ‘The Shopping Cart Queen!” Actually, these days, Christina is more known as the -how to- create your own website using “WordPress Queen!”
So she makes the following proven online money making suggestion. And since she consistently earns six figures online you can and should take heed to her extremely sage advice.
Add your business phone number (and or fax number) prominently featured on the top banner of your sales order page. Basically for two reasons.
A.) First, it’s a proven fact, that when online consumers see (either) your direct area code and phone number and or a toll free customer service number on your order page, they logically conclude, there must be real people (that they can call and potentially talk to), should the need arise!
B.) And the other reason, believe it or not! Some people still will only order by phone or fax, but not via the web! (Hey some people are simply set in their ways!)
2.) Simple proven change # two: Next, you hear it all the time. “You gotta build your (on or) offline list! Well, when you do; after you get that all important online opt in, (if you’re using the double opt in feature, once you re-direct them to the actual page, where they’re going to actually download your free lead generation goodie.
Entrepreneur, the savvy marketers (so that means you!), also make some type of initial low cost “OTO” (One Time Only) offer! You’ve got to systematically take advantage of their forward momentum.
Just be aware that typically, on average, usually only one to three percent will actually take you up on your offer!
But one percent of a fifteen thousand opt in list, equals an extra 150 sales! (15,000 x .01 = 150) And once your opt in email list reaches (say) 50,000 subscribers, that means an additional 500 sales of X! (50,000 x .01 = 500)
3.) Simple proven change #three: When a customer actually orders and you send them to your actual download (“thank you”) for your order page (entrepreneur) that’s where you gotta go for some type of low cost additional add on/upsell opportunity!
Or see “how” many of your top joint venture (JV) partners will allow you to add one of your best market tested download links to their “thank you” page. And vice versa.
This way you can start strategically and inexpensively building your opt in list, with non competing, semi qualified prospects, for literally pennies on the dollar!

Hey Mark,
Those are some great tips.
I’ll be creating my site soon enough to promote my product but not sure about any upsales. I know, leaving money on the table but I hate those things. Seriously, I really really do so I hate doing things I can’t stand myself just to make a few extra dollars. It will have to be something I’ll take into consideration down the road though, we’ll see.
Great share though so thanks for that. Hope you’re enjoying your week.
