When people arrive at your website,
do they see what you want them to see ... or do you give them
what they came to find?
Think about that question for a
minute.
The answer is critical to your
success on the Internet.
The buying process begins when
customers become aware of a need or problem. Shortly thereafter,
they begin their search for a solution.
If you are selling products or
services on the Internet, your visitors need to know the moment
they arrive at your website that you are aware of their
need or problem. You must let them know you can identify with
them and that you have exactly what they're looking for.
How do you do this? By learning
to view the world from your prospective customers' point of
view. By walking in their shoes so you can see what they see
and feel what they feel. Only by becoming intimately familiar
with the challenges your prospects face can you know how to
present solutions to their problems and answers to their needs.
Then you must write your sales
message from this perspective. Let them know you understand
where they're coming from. Don't force them to see what you
want them to see. Give them what they came to find.
