    Hey,

    This is a tough question to answer.
    There are so many variables.

    How good is the sales copy?
    What are you actually selling?

    It's different for every product and every person.

    Instead of asking how well other peoples' products convert, consider testing for yourself and working to improve your own sales pitches.

    Hope that helps

    Thanks
    Eleanor

    It does totally depend on what you are selling, and how targeted the traffic is before it arrives on your sales page. But if it is 'cold' traffic, you will just about always get a very low conversion rate. That's why it is much better to get visitors to your site onto your email list - then you get the chance to build a relationship with them & selling becomes much easier.

      Most of the sales of my main ClickBank product come from first-time visitors. They definitely buy if the offer is right.

        Absolutely,

        Your ultimate objective, by-and-large, is to convert your visitors that first visit. If you have done your research, and are drawing in targeted visitors to your website, then converting on the first visit is very realistic; assuming your landing page, copy, etc. are all good.

    Why they will not if your product is solution of their problem ??

    If you have a product which solves their problem + a nice salesman(Salespage) then they will buy it in first time...

    But most of the visitors seek for reviews about any particular product so keep your reviews positive

    Best Regards
    Sam

    It's actually not uncommon at all to have the majority of your sales from first time visitors. A strong sales letter definitely helps. Also depends on competition and price along with a variety of other factors. As long a you have targeted traffic coming in then you should be fine

    There are many sides to this question.

    First, it depends on the needs or problems
    of your first time visitors.

    Second, the solution you are offering to the problem.

    Third your ability to convince him that your product
    is the ONLY solution to his problem.

    Lastly, his willingness and ability to buy as he is reading
    your sales copy.

    If you can provide real and valid proof that your system, service or product delivers what it promises, your audience will be captivated.

    Using the correct language, you can entice the potential cusomter to purchase the product.

    If this doesn't work, try to do something similar as an OTO (one time offer) and practically give it away for the first purchase.

    Jamie.

    This is a too general question. Conversion will depend on many things:

    - Niche
    - Product
    - Competition
    - Sales Copy
    - Graphics

    But usually it's hard to sell to first time visitors. The best option is to capture their email so you can keep contacting them and close the sale after they know and trust you.

    Hard to say. If your offer truly is irresistible, then yes. This is why low cost products do well even with cold traffic, those less than $10 because such purchases are like impulse purchases. But it is always good to get visitors onto your list, so you can start developing a better relationship with them and 'warm them up' before you actually sell.

    Yes first time visitors can be buyers. It really depends on how soon you grab their attention because the average visitor will take only 2 seconds to decide to click on the back button or stay.

    You need to attract them right from the bat with images, color, headlines etc. Then you continue to "hold their hands" in the copy and finally to the buy button.

    It all depends on their first impressions on what they see first.

    If a first time visitor will buy or not depends on two factors:

    * This visitor must really care about your offer

    * Your products must really be the ideal ones

    Now, how you are going to send targeted traffic to your website and how you will convince your visitors to purchase your products depends on numerous factors…

    This is not a simple matter.

    You need a well-designed website in a professional style, and many details that will help your visitors feel safe. They must trust your products and trust you as a business owner. You need convincing sales letters, you must give bonuses, and a money back guarantee.

    My products are original and different. My visitors rarely buy from their first visit, unless they come from another one of my websites or from my Squidoo lenses, from my blog, or if they are my articles’ readers.

    Sometimes I see someone first buying my ebooks and only then becoming my subscriber, while the process usually works on the contrary: first someone becomes a subscriber, and after receiving many messages, he/she becomes a buyer…

    Some days my sites receive a lot of traffic but I make no sales. Other days the traffic drops, but I make sales. There are no laws.

    As me being a frequent buyer, if I don't buy something from the first visit, I won't normally come back to that website. When I read the sales copy, I try to find the benefits of the product and then I scroll down to the price.

    So yeah, to asnwer your question, first time visitors do buy.

    I don't think people buy on their first visit. Usually they google for the product name review. Just my two cents.

    Sometimes they do. So you have to make sure they feel at ease with you and your site.

    Sometimes people can be meticulous to the point of annoying.

    My friend runs an ebay store and most of the visitors/cutomers are first comers. The reason is..most of the items are less than $50 and they find it easy to spend for their daughter(s)/wives. If we identify the right crowd...it will be a sure hit!. The success is make the customers come again for the next time.

    As I have observed, a lot of website visitors click on the site but do not make a purchase right away. I figured maybe they are canvassing other products from other websites. And once they find your products or services better, they go back to the site and purchase.
