Generate big sales on Website Design Service

Do you have a LinkedIn profile? How about a great looking facebook page for your business? Just having these 2 things can help greatly.

-Figure out some small part of your service you can give away for free, and use that to generate leads.

-Run a Warrior for hire ad if you're not already doing that.

-Run a WSO and offer affiliates a % for sending you leads. Almost no one is doing this with services (only products). A few are and are very successful.

--Consider a banner ad on WF for $100/day

Best of luck.

Run a free/low priced WSO that teaches warriors how to create stunning squeeze page, banners, even websites/fan page. Upsell your services. The key is not to we money from WSO but to create awareness for your services.

One of the things you could do to manage sales as they are always cyclic and there can be a big slump at times is to have some high-value subscription services.

This isn't something that will make you a lot of money immediately, but over time, a high value subscription will ensure you have a very good stream of income flowing in. Since you are offering web design, you can think of some sort of a value addition service you could add to it.

Generally, running a promotion, etc. can be a great way to boost sales in the short term, but if you are running a business, you can't always rely on promotions to make you money. Clients who will keep coming back to you, subscriptions, etc. can help.

There's also graduating to the next level. You can go after the bigger clients, outside of the WF marketplace, too. There are people who will easily pay $1000+ for web design and development (and I say easy, that's a very, very low price for top notch services), so if you can be present in front of them, that's another way to get those big sales.

Hope that helps. :-)

Get out from behind the desk and hit local business owners.

I would avoid the WSO section.

You'll only attract cheapskates in there.

Teach everything how to do upsell the doing it for them part because most will never do it themselves.

Thank you so much guys for sharing some tips.
It is a big help on our business. I really appreciate it.

Thanks again

Offer some free or lower cost designs that have your companies website at the bottom of it saying designed by: your site.

Nice sales pitch and free advertising for your services..... :rolleyes:

have u tried ppc?

I posted a similar thread a couple days ago. Just keep advertising your company as best as you can. Advertise on different forums and websites, etc.

Thank again guys.

We are actually planning to offer affiliate programs.
Would this help our business grow?

I'd suggest doing some free works for wso publishers. And get some JV going.

If you're into marketing, try developing sites for a local area in a specific industry and lease those sites or use them for local lead gen or earn commissions from sales.

If you have downtime, but the resources for building great sites, this could be a side biz where you build up your own assets that generate revenue. I do this and it works ... you just need to do a little legwork to find local businesses will to pay for new business (isn't that hard if you offer remuneration via commissions for sales).
