Building a Brand That People Will Want to Buy On Your Shopify Store
The objective is to entice people to purchase a specific product and entice them to purchase the product from you. Why would they come to your site to purchase fitness apparel when they can purchase the very same item on Amazon?
How do you establish the confidence and familiarity necessary for people to purchase from you?
What Exactly Is a Brand?
It begins with a clear understanding of what a brand is – and what isn’t. A brand encompasses much more than a logo and a corporate name. Other than those, the brand is the mission statement that unites and propels your business forward. It is the answer to the following question: 'What motivates you to do what you do?'This is a fundamental misunderstanding that many companies have, and it is precisely this misunderstanding that prevents them from reaching their full potential. If your brand's sole purpose is to sell goods, it will be uninspiring and uninteresting, and no one will feel a connection to you or a need to purchase from you over another seller.
We've all visited places like that: they're boring, uninteresting, and lack passion. However, consider the brands that you adore. They will have a compelling reason for being and an inspiration and source of value with which you agree.
Perhaps you prefer an organic food company that seems to genuinely care for its consumers' wellbeing and avoids anything harmful to their health. Perhaps they wish to make the planet a safer, more environmentally friendly place. And this encourages you to support them.
It piques your interest in their product recommendations. Perhaps the brand you adore is a strength training brand that emphasizes the importance of pushing yourself harder and the importance of grit and determination. If this resonates with you, you'll want to wear the logo!
Brand Communication
Having a genuine mission statement and enthusiasm for your brand is one thing; communicating it to your audience and convincing them to believe you is quite another.So how do you go about accomplishing this and ensuring that people really understand your mission?
A good place to start is with a logo and business name that perfectly convey who you are and what you do. This should be tailored to a specific target group. The lesson here is that you should never attempt to get everybody’s approval or admiration. It would be more strategic to target a specific group of people.
The goal is that if anyone sees only one of your products or blog posts, along with your company name and logo, that should be enough to convince them to follow your brand!
Pricing and Positioning The Products for Maximum Sales
What drives the success of an item's sale? Many people believe it is the item's quality. Others believe it is the marketing's consistency. However, it is all of those things combined and much more. The very overwhelming aspect of selling a product is that you must get it right, and that countless small variables all contribute to how well (or poorly) your product sells at any given time.This spells good news for you, as it means that you can potentially increase revenue at any point by tweaking your strategy in one or more areas. For instance, rearranging the products in an e-commerce store can significantly impact how well they sell!
Utilization of Contrast
Contrast is an intriguing retail term that implies displaying two products with contrasting price points next to one another. In other words, arrange your costly ties alongside your inexpensive ties.Why should you do it this way? Because it enhances the appearance of both products. When paired with less expensive ties, the more expensive ties seem more elegant and premium.
Additionally, suppose anyone was considering purchasing the inexpensive ties. In that case, they could find that the more expensive ones are available and that for only a little more money, they could have the most luxurious line that you stock. They may not have been initially interested in purchasing a $50 tie. However, given that it is just $15 more expensive than the inexpensive ties, why not up the ante and go for the best option?
On the other hand, this now makes the inexpensive ties, seem to be an even better bargain. And if your customer is on the fence about whether or not to make a purchase, they can use this to persuade themselves. 'Well,' they can reason, 'at the very least, if I purchase the inexpensive tie, I can save money!'
Selling One Low-Cost Item
I always recommend that an e-commerce store sell at least one extremely low-priced item. This is critical because when someone shops with you for the first time, they will have reservations about your service or the security of your payments. As a result, they would be unable to invest a significant sum of money and risk it not turning up!However, by selling a single item extremely low cost, you can persuade someone to take a chance while the stakes are low. This way, they will see that you have dependable service and will hopefully return in the future for more costly goods!
There are several additional methods for selling products, ranging from bundling products together to providing limited-time discounts to increase sales. Ultimately, the key takeaway lesson is that if you want to sell anything quickly, you might want to reconsider the way you display it in your ecommerce shop.
