In most cases where minimal effort is talked about, it assumes that you will be willing to hire someone to put that effort in for you. However, other solutions can be as little effort for you as you want them to be. These solutions to increasing your sales have the potential to be quick and easy and can be put into action by either simply typing an email, setting up an additional purchasing area on your website, or putting together a recording or script.
#1 Offer discounts to current customers
One quick route to more sales is getting existing customers to place larger orders or more of them. So, you are going to want to focus on those customers that are good, quick payers rather than the ones that like to hold on to their cash until the last sales appeal is sent to them.
Offering your good customers discounts on their orders for various reasons, such as thanking them for their custom, a discount above a certain financial threshold or item quantity, or even just plain and simple free postage and packing, will have new orders flowing in. This is because it is human nature to want something for a bargain price or to get something relatively free, even if it involves paying more initially.
#2 Set up subscription selling
With that box ticked, offering your customers a way to set up effortless ordering could hand you sales that you may not have previously gotten due to customers physically ordering rather than putting purchases off for another day.
By allowing your customers to set up subscriptions for their orders, they will automatically get their products either weekly, monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, or yearly (depending on how you wish them to order).
Sold as an idea that benefits your customer in that they will not have to remember to place orders or, for that matter, run out of stock; you will have regular orders you can count on so you can focus on other areas to build your business.
#3 Different advertising strategies
Different advertising strategies that require minimal effort include radio advertising. Many businesses think that radio influences are not as strong as others. However, if you focus your radio advertising on those stations that have paying listeners, such as Sirius XM, you will soon find that you have an audience that listens to what you have to offer.
Not only this, but you will have a choice of topics and channels you would like your advertisement played on so that you have a hand in choosing the perfect audience for your products. Of course, with any sort of advertising, there are rules and guidelines, so it is best that you fully understand How to Advertise on SiriusXM before you jump in with both feet.
Final thoughts
As you can see, there are ways in which you can increase your sales and therefore your profits with minimal effort on your part, and what is best, once set up, these ways could be a continuation of your strategies while you are checking out additional profit-making ideas.
