Sales, Sales, Sales

Posted by Jessica Yeates on Mar 21st 2018

I am Jessica Yeates. I have been with Sugar Shower Co since August 2017 and I am here to talk to you all about sales. I will give you some key pointers that will help you with getting your first sale and continuous sales from your customers.

1. Make sure to interact with your customers (even before they are customers) on your business page and on your personal page (as well as theirs). This will build a relationship between the 2 of you. People feel a lot more comfortable if they can connect with someone on a personal level when buying from online stores/groups.
2. Post daily. New release products, products that have been with the company for a while and ESPECIALLY your personal reviews on the products you are selling. If you love the product you are trying to sale others will also fall in love.
3. Don’t be afraid to step outside of your comfort zone. Post live videos (or just record yourself and then post it if that is easier for you) with the products. People like to see the products “in real life.” Talk about your products.
4. Grow your business one person at a time. For every 5 no’s you will have 1 yes.
5. Differentiate yourself from the hundreds others selling the same product as you are. Make yourself stand out.
6. Invest in your business. Buy the products and make samples. Invest in business cards. Keep both available with you so the next time you are in line at the store you can talk to the people around you waiting. Give them a business card and sample.
7. Lastly, follow up with your customers. Message them and ask how they like the products. When you post new products tag them so they see it.

The key to success is Interpersonal (get to know the perspective customers), Presentation (photos, live videos), Product Knowledge (learn as much information about each product we offer), and Closing (making the sale(s)).
