Hello, I'm new to this whole entrepreneuring thing. I started a new business selling jewellery online about three months ago. I've got no problems with getting people to visit the site but I don't know how to incite people to actually buy. I'm getting a little discouraged because I get approximately 50 visitors per week but... no sales! I've tried lowering the prices too but still no sales. I'm not sure what's going through the visitors' minds. Would someone be able to shed some light for me? I would love to know what thought process goes through a person's mind when they shop online. Should I try a different approach? I'm thinking of going "offline" to sell (e.g. cold calling and walking into offices randomly). Would that be a bad move?
I don't know anything about online sales, nor do I have any experience with people coming to a website asking for information except for guns. Guns and jewelry are different species.
If you ever turn on a tv, ours comes up with the shopping network on. They're hawking stuff cheap, they say, and of great quality, they say, and they're peddling.
That said, your website might need to give them a reason to buy, and maybe some kind of comparisons are in order.... such and such butterfly pendant... $120, our butterfly pendant with.. such and such clasp, baked enamel coloring will never wear off, pure gold setting so that it won't ever bother your skin like imitations will, striking colors visible from all angles will complement even the most beautiful of neckline... or you women out there... would ANY neckline be better.... :) and not only do you receive quality any asseyor, that would be pawn shop to you lay people, give you top price for compared to the imitators, our value delivery direct to you is only $89. Invest wisely into jewelry that will forever maintain its value... invest with us...
I don't know... but that's how I'd be thinking at first blush.... :) With Pictures against a satin or felt background and such...:)
As for the peddling part, sure why not? Any exposure of your wares will benefit you.
Much Aloha... Tom :cool: -rattus58
