Online Selling Tactics to Help Your Business Attract and Convert Customers

Customers are becoming more aware, circumspect and more careful when it comes to spending

and investing their budgets. Now that social media and the online environment allow us to know

everything about the products and services, the selling tactics change.

Besides marketing and customer service, social selling is one of the fastest growing

areas on social media. Efficient social selling depends on detailed understanding of customer

behavior. Usually, the companies that engage in social selling approach the market in an

instinctive and experimental way and ignore the customers’ needs, insisting on the idea that

testing and modeling the behavior is enough. This couldn’t be more wrong. The markets are too

competitive to allow this luxury.

Here are a few online selling tactics to attract and convert users into clients:

1. Create an online destination to share your content

It doesn’t matter if your company is B2B or B2C; you need to create a place for social

participation, where people can find you. It can be a blog, a Facebook company page, a LinkedIn

page or a Tumblr account. There you’ll be able to share your content and engage with your

future customers. You can use them to promote your products or services, offers or reinforce

the company’s image.

2. Look for opportunities to engage with your buyers

Anyone who wants to ask for an opinion, about a product or company will go on the Internet.

At least once a week you can monitor for comments of conversations that interest you and take

part at the discussions. Searching the social media websites using the right keywords is a quick

and efficient method to engage with your future buyers. There is a variety of free social search

engine tools like socialmention or topsy, that can be used to surface the interaction

opportunities.

3. Make your selling activities more social

LinkedIn is one of the best social networking websites for B2B. You can create a great customer

base just by driving a great lead generation campaign on LinkedIn. Try to create a connection

with your target, nurture them rather than to invade them with direct proposals. Imagine that

they receive these types of messages every day; you don’t want to get stuck in the crowd.

And let’s not forget about websites like Youtube, Vimeo or Instagram. Sharing visual content is

a great way to generate leads and engage with customers. So, if you’re looking for a new way to

expand your content, consider spending more time into the social video area. Make short video

presentations of your products or services to draw more people to you. Customers are much

more responsive to visual content.
