1. Follow-up with your customers once you have made the sale. A good follow-up method is to send the customer a "thank you" e-mail. Within the e-mail you could inform the customer of other products you offer. You can use this method every few months.
2. Entice customers to add to their order by offering products related to their purchase.
3. Tell your customers if they refer four customers to your web site, they will receive a full rebate of their purchase price. This will turn one sale into three sales.
4. After a successful sale, invite customers to earn commissions by joining an affiliate program and selling your products. This will extend the sale.
5. Sell the reprint/reproduction rights to your products. You could include an ad on or with the product for other products you sell. You could make sales for the reproduction rights and sales on the back end product.
6. You could cross promote your product with other businesses' products in a package deal. You can include an ad or flyer for other products you sell and have other businesses selling for you.
7. Inform customers of your other products by adding coupons for products related to their purchase. This will get their attention so that they will buy other products you sell.
8. Send your customers a catalog of add-on products for the original product they purchased. This could be upgrades, special services, attachments, etc. If they enjoy your product they will buy the extra add-ons.
9. Allow customers to purchase your products with gift certificates. You will get the sale when the customer redeems the gift certificate. The customer may also purchase other products available on your website.
10. Send your customers free products with their product package. The freebies should have your ad printed on them. It could be bumper stickers, ball caps, t-shirts etc. This will allow other people to see your ad and order.
