“Just wire me the money and I’ll get this shipped right out to you…”
(Can’t read the full email – click here for the online version.)
My wife was shopping for a Sea-Can – a used shipping
container to store some of our stuff until we decide where to ship it and our kids are ready to receive some of the contents.
One fellow out of Vancouver tells her to wire the funds before he’ll ship. But that sounded dodgy to her so she told the seller that her brother-in-law was nearby and what was the address so he could confirm the quality of the unit.
Dead silence after
he hung up.
“Caveat emptor” (buyer beware) is a good thought to have for any purchase – especially when buying online. From a first-time vendor.
Maybe the guy was legitimate. But it was hard to tell. And there didn’t appear to be many reviews – that were trustworthy.
Here some facts you may
know but haven’t implemented a solution.
- 85% of consumers trust online reviews about businesses as much as personal recommendations! Your online rating could be the reason you are not obtaining as many visitors, calls or appointments as you should.
- 89% of
customers look at reviews before making a buying decision
- 87% of buyers comparison shop for every purchase.
- A poor online rating could cost you customers, decrease your sales and put you far behind your
competition.
As I mentioned, you probably know all this, even though you might not have known exact figures. What you likely do not know is how your online presence stacks up against the competition.
That’s why I offer all of my clients a free online presence report. You can get one for your business, this
week, free of charge. Simply click here.
Until next week,
Stay healthy and focus on profit!
