E-BUSINESS (SELLING ON THE INTERNET)

Should you sell your products and services on the Internet? Offering your customers this option may be an important service for your business and may bring you new sales from around the globe.

A few strategies for handling online sales are outlined below. If you think that selling via the Internet is for you, you'll want to stay abreast of the topic - keep up with news in the traditional media and on the Web.

Use Email, Fax and Phone to Complete Transactions

A low-budget solution for Internet sales is to "sell" your product on your web site by inviting customers to complete the transaction using email, fax or phone (800 number). The disadvantage of this method is that customers may not send you all the information you need to complete the sale; obtaining the additional information could be time-consuming and costly. Also, since the customer would need to initiate a second step off-line to make the purchase, your chances of sale are reduced.

Fill-in Forms

Adding forms (possibly using CGI [computer graphics interface] scripts or other techniques) to your web site allows your customer to quickly "fill in the blanks" of an order form for your products at that moment online. Customers can place an order immediately while they're still excited about what they've seen on your web site. (You can build a database of order information from these sales for future promotions as well.)

The form can be set up to immediately return a message to the customer indicating which required field(s) have been left blank. The customer will understand that the form will not be submitted until information in all of the required fields has been submitted. This allows you to gather all of the necessary data to complete a sale, which is an advantage over your customer sending an unstructured, and possibly incomplete, email message to place an order.

Your web page designer adds the script to your web site, and your Internet Service Provider (ISP) sets up a system for sending you the information collected from your forms.
