Strategies to Build Sales on Your Online Store

[Mika]

In order to generate sales, the main requirement is traffic. If you don’t get quality traffic, you can’t sell. Another problem is competition. A lot of people are already selling the same product and you cannot stand out in the competitive market.

It is ok to sell in a market that is competitive yet proven to be profitable but you need to do something before selling.

Market Research: Before you create your product, you need to do research. You should try to find out whether there is a demand for your product. The research should also involve knowing your competitors and knowing your competitor’s products (features, price, etc.).

Unique Selling Proposition: Standing out in a competitive market is very important in order to generate sales. The stronger your unique selling proposition, the more sales will pour in. You need to offer something with your product so that the buyers choose to click on your product instead of your competitor's product. You need to offer your product to the specific target audience.

If you are selling from your own store, your store and your products need to ranked high on search engines. Let’s say someone searches for “Buy T-shirts.” If the T-shirt from your store appears on the top search results, you will be able to buy your product. You need to do SEO for your store and product listing in order to get ranked on search engines. If you can’t get ranked high, this does not mean it is an end to sell T-shirts. You can do search engine marketing and get your product ranked on the paid listing or as an ad. If you are selling on third party marketplaces like Amazon, eBay, Etsy, etc. you need to try for internal ranking. This again calls for SEO skills. The only alternate to this is running ads for your products. Most of the online marketplaces offer CPC advertising, which means you pay for your ads only when it gets clicked by the visitors.
