Wow, you think, that's a great bargain, I'll go for it. The result 10 people visiting your site and no one buying.What's the problem?You have not effectively targeted your customers. Your field of customers is too large. Most of them are not interested in your product. You need to zero in the person that wants, needs and thirsts for your product.How Do I Find My Targeted Customer?1. You have to have to put on your customers shoes. There's an Indian saying that says "You must walk a mile in my shoes, before you can understand me. For example, if I am selling a weight loss product, I would not be targeting skinny people, but targeting those that are overweight.2. Make a thumb nail sketch of this person who is your customer? What is her wants, needs and worries? Try to understand what makes them tick. Then you can understand what gain you can offer and what worry you can solve.For example, let's make a sketch of the overweight person.30-50 years oldOut of shapeProbably married with childrenUnder a lot of pressure, tight for time, stressedLooking for ways to improve health and wealthLack of self esteem3. Develop your product that addresses one or more of these needs. Always refer back to your thumbnail sketch as you write for your site. Elaborate on the points that fit your product and what it delivers. As you start writing, new ideas will naturally emerge, but always keep them focused on your targeted customer so you won't go off the track of what your customer wants.Write Your Copy to SellWhen you begin to write the copy for your site, always stress the benefits. Develop a theme for your site that focuses on this benefit and don't stray from it - see my article, "How to Get Listed in the Search Engines Developing a Theme-Based Site" (www.isitebuild.com/searchengine.htm)Make Sure Each Page SellsEach page should emphasize the benefits in the headline, to pull the reader into the contents of your page. It should ask this question:"What's in it for me? Why should I spend my precious time reading this page?"Make sure you are writing, as if you were talking to your friend.Make your copy one to one, conversational, friendly and personal, as if you are sitting next to the person. Write from the viewpoint of what your customer wants to buy, not what you want to sell.Then deliver the contents in a clear, crisp way, being careful not to stray from the central purpose of what you promised in the headline.Finally, make your customer want to click through to the next page or click through to your order page.Now, that you have identified your targeted customer and written copy tailored to solving your customers problems, you will no longer lose those that you have driven to your site.You have now put them in the buying mood.
