Overcoming The Fear of Past Mistakes

On the Internet these days there is a lot of talk about conversion rates. Your web site's job is to turn visitors into buying customers.

No matter what kind of business you're in, conversion rates are a prime concern. Customers come into your store and either discover reasons to buy, or go away having settled on reasons not to buy.

One of the key reasons people don't buy is from a fear of past mistakes. They bought a product or service like yours once and it didn't work.

The early years of the Net have been a time of trial and error. All of us have tried this and that with a few things working wonderfully while others are a waste of time and money. It's hard to find a customer who hasn't lost money on something that didn't work.

Overcome this fear by helping the customer understand why their earlier experience was a failure. Many still don't know why the earlier purchase didn't work. They appreciate your help and admire your expertise.

Without being too heavy-handed, show how you can solve the earlier short coming to achieve the results the customer wants.
