Attract Customers By Offering Great Deals Why should customers choose you over your competition? This is the question that should pop up in your head every time you plan to write a new listing this holiday season.. Offering your customers freebies (like a free sample or a free gift coupon, etc.) is a great way to make them open your listing page and then press the BUY Button. Also, if you can publish your best offers on Social Media sites, you can make the offer spread through the network.

Before you market, make sure that your offer is very attractive for prospective buyers. Apart from Social Media, you can also get the word out through e-mails, blog posts, and tweets. If you have a Fanpage for your store, you can post your offer listings on the wall. You can post updates on your fan page that create anticipation for an upcoming offer. If you follow Facebook announcements recently for free advertisement for small businesses in 2012. Here is a post from Under30CEO “ Will Free Facebook Ads Help Your Business?” which analyzes the free ads of Facebook. You will notice how effectively they have created anticipation already. You can also make use of One Day, One Deal sites like Woot which has been acquired by Amazon. this sites offer a new item offer every single day . So make use of sites like these to attract more customers
Read the recent announcements(if any) from Amazon Okay. You have a great product to sell. You are ready with the price and everything and then suddenly you get a bad surprise. Amazon doesn’t allow you sell that product. After all the hard work and preparation, this news won’t be pleasant for you, I guarantee and then you would so much wish you read the recent announcements before putting in so much of efforts and hardwork. For example, if you are a toy seller, it will be wise to read through “Holiday Selling Guidelines in Toys & Games” before anything else. There are some categories requiring approval. So it is wise to do a good quality Internet Amazon Market Research before diving into the market.
Focus on writing an attractive yet genuine ad The most important step in writing an ad is to get reader’s attention with a strong opening which should make your customers read the entire ad and get to know about the offers which you are going to give them. You have to create desire for your product by stating a problem and showing your product to be the solution. You can work on the images and write your offer in an attractive way to encourage visitors click on your listings. For example, FREE SHIPPING,BUY 1 GET 1, and so on. Nowadays, listings consist of demo videos where the product features are nicely showcased. A simple video too can make your listing more useful for the buyers. You can create a few images and listings for the same product and experiment. Stick with the ones that do the best. Daily deals and lightning deals are game-changers during this period because they create a sense of urgency and everyone is particularly price sensitive during the holidays. So make sure you offer a great price for the items and attract as many customers to your webstore as www. obvainc.com
