Start Increasing Sales By Merchandising Garden Supplies

by Aaron Slot

If you are an online garden supply business owner with a business that isn't thriving as you had hoped it would, take a breath before you hire an expensive consultant. Even though things aren't going great, you do not need a consultant. All you need to do is apply these tips.

When someone makes a big purchase a personal note telling them how much you appreciate their business will help them remember to come back. So many people use auto responders that buyers become uninterested in receiving them. A personal email or thank you can make a big difference.

Always post a list price higher than the price you are willing to take. Most people will want to negotiate at least some, and at least a few will attempt to cut your price dramatically. Be prepared for any and all offers. However, by setting your price higher than your minimum, you leave some flexibility and allow for reasonable attempts to haggle.

Create one budget for starting the business and one for operating the business. Remember, the number one reason businesses fail is a lack of capital. Be sure your budget takes into account how much will be needed to start and sustain the business until it reaches profitability. Have contingency plans if your revenue ramps up more slowly than anticipated, as is often the case. Don't let a planning oversight put you out of business.

Different people feel differently about different garden supplies. Don't let your judgment be clouded by any emotional value the garden supply product might have for you and therefore think that that applies to everybody. Some people decide to compensate that through pricing, by charging higher price as they try to hold on to those "favorite" garden supplies.

Get the support you require. Whether it's family, friends, or professional contacts, ensure that you have someone cheering you on. When you become disappointed, it's vital to know that someone will be there to give you encouragement.

Eliminate the middlemen when you order from wholesalers and drop shippers. You can do the ordering to save yourself thousands of dollars in fees. Use the suppliers that are used by many major e-commerce websites.

When promoting your garden supply product to customers, make sure that the biggest benefit of the garden supply product is what you are using to lure them in. Your strongest selling point is the greatest benefit of your garden supply product. Make sure it is listed in titles, headlines, first sentences, etc.

It is true that online garden supply stores are a rage now-a-days. But keep one thing in mind- if your garden supplies are mostly purchased in the markets, it is useless to start an online shop. Before spending a huge amount on creating a web store look whether or not such an action is required.
