"How Does One Determine How to Minimize Risk of Losing Customers When
Trying To?"
First of all, how much do you think your product is worth? Take a look at your
competitors websites and take note on what their charging for the same product.
If they are charging a lower price than you you have to ask yourself two questions.
Will it be profitable for you to undercut your competitors?
Or should you take the chance and have the same product at your site cost more?
If you choose the latter you had better make sure to really emphasize the benefits
your potential customers will reap from buying the same product from you instead
of purchasing from the guy down the street, what kind of guarantee does your
competitor offer their visitors? Do they offer a 30 day money back guarantee?
Too get the edge you might consider offering a 60 day no questions asked money
back guarantee followed by personal followups from you to your customer making
sure their extremely happy with their purchase and service they received from
you.
If you sell multiple items on your site you should make sure your site is equipped
with a shopping cart to encourage multiple purchases at once, try to keep the
purchasing system as simple and uncomplicated as possible too reduce as much
as possible shopping cart abandonment from happening to frequently on your site.
It also helps to have your physical mailing address as well as a telephone number
on your site to build credibility with your sites visitors. Try pricing experimentation,
raise your prices, keep track of visitor to sales conversion rates. If you notice
sales slipping away you can always drop your price. Offer more to your visitors
than your competitors and you may find people are willing to pay more for excellent
product and more importantly customer followups.
