No one has ever logged onto the Internet for the first time and started pocketing dollars in a really short period of time. As with all things in life, there is a learning curve. There is only one way to shorten the curve on the Internet, "you must plan to succeed."

If you don't remind your customers that you are
still in business they may forget. Repeat customers
are the lifeblood of any business. Below are three
effective strategies you can use to remind your
customers that you are still in business and get
them to b.uy over and over again.

1. Ask your customers to subscribe to your f.ree
publication. It could be a print newsletter, e-zine,
newspaper, journal etc. You could send out the
publication weekly, monthly, bi-monthly, etc. The
articles in the publication should be informative
and helpful to your readers. You can i.ncrease
repeat purchases by including advertisements of
new products and services that you o.ffer.

2. Ask customers to sign-up to an e-mail update
that tells them when you have made changes to
your web site. Whenever you update your web
site send them an e-mail to remind them to visit
again. If you're using this strategy it's important
to update your web site often. Add new content
that would be of interest to your customers. You
could also add f.ree stuff to your web site like
software, online utilities, ebooks etc.

3. Follow-up with your customers. You could
follow-up by e-mail, d.irect mail or by telephone.
It's always important to get their permission to
follow-up ahead of time. You could contact
them and ask them if they were happy with their
purchase. Send them online or offline greeting
cards on holidays and birthdays. You could also
follow-up with a f.ree gift letting them know you
appreciate their business. You can get repeat
business from them if you include another product
o.ffer or back end product with each follow-up.

In conclusion, any of the three strategies above
will i.ncrease the number of repeat purchases from
your current customers. You can i.ncrease their
effectiveness by combining all of them into your
marketing campaign.

Quote of the Day:

"Money will b.uy a bed but not sleep; books but not brains;
food but not appetite; finery but not beauty; a house but
not a home; medicine but not health; luxuries but not
culture; amusements but not happiness; religion but not
salvation; a passport to everywhere but heaven." -- Unknown
