Customers want to believe you are in business to help them. They don't mind if you make a profit by helping them. But they won't buy from you if they believe you are only in business to get their money.

Here are 4 ways you can assure customers that you are in business to help them.

1. Personalize Your Sales Approach

Customers will not believe you really want to (or can) help them when they see you trying to sell same product or service to everybody.

Learn everything you can about your customers and their lifestyles. Then, sub-divide your targeted market into several narrowly defined niche markets.

Customize your sales messages to specific interests and needs of prospects in each niche market. Customers should be able to see your product or service as perfect solution to their specific situation.

2. Convert Everything Into Customer Benefits

One way to convince customers you want to help them is to focus on benefits they can get from you.

Customers don't really care about you, your company, your products or your professional credentials. They only care about benefits they can get by using your products or services.

Keep this in mind as you develop your web pages, sales letters and other promotional materials. Present everything in terms of benefit it provides to customers. For example:

...Don't just list features of your product or service. Explain how those features provide benefits your customers want.

...Don't just publicize your educational or professional credentials. Describe how those credentials equip you to do a better job for customers than your competitors.

3. Build A Relationship

You can also demonstrate your commitment to help customers by building a relationship with them. Few prospects buy on first communication - even if they desperately want or need what you are selling.

You need to get rid of that virus by implementing, knowledge, hard work and right mindset, learn from other people's mistakes and understand why they have failed online, so that you can avoid making same mistakes, when you do make a mistake, shake it off and get on with your life, take that mistake and turn it into knowledge.

Here are top three reasons why most people fail online:

1) Don't have money to start, or don't want to spend it!.

You have to think that starting a online business is same as starting an offline business, when you start an offline business, there are certain things that you have to be willing to pay for if you want your business to succeed.

And same thing goes for your online business, and if you're not willing to spend money on these things then your business will go nowhere!

A list of what you need is: A great web-host (this is lifeline of your business)

A good follow up system (autoresponders)

Knowledge (if you have to buy into a membership or course to learn what it takes to build your business then do it)

You have to spend some money on advertising..(eZine advertising, Pay-Per-Click or whatever) (Just make sure you do your reasearch on what your fixing to join or purchase!)

2) They give up before it get's going!

This happens all time, people come on line with hopes of getting rich, they join one scheme after another thinking this one is going to make me rich, as soon as they receive another email scheme, they jump on it..
