How To Hit The Competition Without Losing The Customer

Another effective way is to quote credible sources such as Consumer Report magazine. Such organizations are not supported by advertisers and so their results carry real weight withrepparttar consumer. There are other such third-party organization that are considered neutral and their conclusions credible.

Outside of such organization you can point to reviews done by users of your products whererepparttar 116552 reviews are not used as an affiliate advertising tool. You are looking to erase all bias in these comparisons.

You may also be wondering how to addressrepparttar 116553 case where your product is obviously inferior to that of your competitor's. In such a situation, you simply admit your faults openly. There are times when extra features can be a useless luxury. For some people, a car is just a convenience to take them from point A to point B. They may not needrepparttar 116554 luxuries of a Porsche or haverepparttar 116555 money to pay for such an expensive vehicle.

So let's say you were selling an autoresponder script that is definitely not as feature-rich as another script. You can state: "If you are looking for high-end script capable of emailing to a million-strong list and having allrepparttar 116556 fancy features that you'll never even bother to use, then this script is NOT for you. However, if you are looking for a small but rugged program that will deliver your emails, without allrepparttar 116557 bells and whistles (and accompanying high price) thenrepparttar 116558 Maxemailer is for you."

Right away you see that you are showingrepparttar 116559 customer that your script will dorepparttar 116560 main thing that a product like yours should do, without having to invest a large amount of money in its purchase. You are admitting that your script is lacking in many features, but inrepparttar 116561 end these components may not be necessary to getrepparttar 116562 job done.

In addition, by admitting to your products 'weak side' you build instant credibility withrepparttar 116563 customer. Many marketers think that they have to hype their products in order to get sales. But many marketing tests have shown that if you admit torepparttar 116564 disadvantages of using your product, sales increase!

Here is how I hitrepparttar 116565 competition on my copywriting service website:

"In fact, I insist that you make a side-by-side comparison of my copywriting results with that of any other copywriter. Then after doing a 'split test' (i.e. run my copy against theirs) you can judge for yourselfrepparttar 116566 selling power of my copy."

For an online business, your competitors are just one click away. Challenge your website visitors to shop around and compare. Most will not.

They'll buy from you instead!
