note book mentioning ways to bring website traffic

There’s something I want you to check today. And even if you’re not feeling like sales are slow, you might not be taking advantage of this opportunity to get more sales. 

Most people aren’t

When you feel like your sales are stagnant, there is one  thing I want you to check. 

Traffic -  specifically traffic quality

Once you’ve hit that magical 3000 web visitors/ month - you need to maintain it, but there’s a huge opportunity to get more sales without spending more money or trying a new tactic.

Here’s a fact:
People who visit your website multiple times are 2x more likely to buy than people who visit for the first time.
Let’s think about 2 stores that each getting 10,000 web visitors a month
Store 1 has 10K visitors, and 70% of those visitors are first time visitors and 30% of those visitors have visited at least 2x

Store 2 has 10K visitors, and 90% of those visitors are first time visitors, and 10% of those visitors have visited at least 2x

For simplicity, let’s say that both stores have the same conversion rate

First time visitors convert at 1%
Visitors who have visited at least 2x convert at 2%

Store 1 :
7000 x 1% = 70 orders

3000 x 2% = 60 orders

Total 130 orders

Store 2:
9000 x 1% = 90 orders

1000 x 2% = 20 orders

Total 110 orders

This a stat that you’ll find in Google Analytics

Go to Audience → Behavior → new vs Returning

Filter - 90 days

Look at your % new visitors and your % returning visitors
Look at your conversion rate for new visitors and compare it to returning visitors

 
How to improve your returning visitor rate:

Most important: Consistency. You don’t have to do something new


1) Consistently post on social media, giving people a reason to click
2) Build warm audiences and retarget them consistently at a low budget

3) Email your list every week and make you give them a reason to click

4) Prioritize list building - measure # of new contacts every week

Give it a try. I promise you. You’ll see results.
