I Need Your Help!

Hi Fellow Warriors,

In the never ending quest to improve my site, if you have a moment, can you please check out my store and give me three good reasons why you wouldn't lay down your hard earned cash.

Thanks!

    Your site looks great, the only things that come to mind and beleive me, they are minor:

    - Your main page has maybe too many product items shown, it kind of detracts from the value of them. You may want to show less.

    - You could have a "best seller" area.

    - People could get the impression you only take phone orders due to the "order by phone" graphic. And also because at the bottom, where it shows the payment methods you accept, it doesnt show Paypal.

    Just a few things to think about.

      Thanks Ernie!

      Since I'm new at this, would the addition of Paypal lead to more sales?

        100% definitely

        Most people don't like ordering by phone and I know you take credit cards, but having the paypal option is another option you should have as some people will only pay via paypal.

    Having run a catalog type site before the first thing I would do is move your opt-in above the fold and focus on list-building.

    For the type of products you're selling, there is no store loyalty. Mostly people are price shopping -- maybe factoring in postage and returns policies etc -- but mostly price shopping.

    That 15% off your first order offer has to be right up front. In fact, I'd probably remove the whole "Go organic for great health" banner (how many sales do you think that has gotten for you?) and put the opt-in and discount offer right up there.

    Aestethically it looks very good, but if possible the visitor should not have to scroll from side to side to even see the opt in form, why not put on the left below the text, otherwise it looks good and inviting and if I was in the market for those products I know I would pounce on it.

    Much success.
