10 Killer Ways To Multiply Your Sales

1. When you make your first sale, follow-up with the 

customer. You could follow-up with a "thank you" 

email and include an advertisement for other products 

you sell. You could follow-up every few months. 

     

2. You could upsell to your customers. When they're 

at your order page, tell them about a few extra related 

products you have for sale. They could just add it to 

their original order. 

3. Tell your customers if they refer four customers to 

your web site, they will receive a full rebate of their 

purchase price. This will turn one sale into three sales. 

4. When you sell a product, give your customers the 

option of joining an affiliate program so they can make 

commissions selling your product. This will multiply 

the sale you just made. 

     

5. Sell the reprint/reproduction rights to your products. 

You could include an ad on or with the product for 

other products you sell. You could make sales for the 

reproduction rights and sales on the back end product. 

     

6. You could cross promote your product with other 

businesses' products in a package deal. You can 

include an ad or flyer for other products you sell and 

have other businesses selling for you. 

7. When you ship out or deliver your product, include 

a coupon for other related products you sell in the 

package. This will attract them to buy more products 

from you. 

8. Send your customers a catalog of add-on products 

for the original product they purchased. This could be 

upgrades, special services, attachments, etc. If they 

enjoy your product they will buy the extra add-ons. 

     

9. Sell gift certificates for your products. You'll make 

sales from the purchase of the gift certificate, when 

the recipient cashes it in. They could also buy other 

items from your web site. 

10. Send your customers free products with their 

product package. The freebies should have your ad 

printed on them. It could be bumper stickers, ball 

caps, t-shirts etc. This will allow other people to see 

your ad and order.
