Have you ever considered how much money you’re leaving on the counter with your online business? If all you sell is a single product, and all your effort is aimed at this single conversion point, you may be losing over 300% of what you could be making with the same number of clients.
Recently, on a Facebook group I’m a contributor at, one member posted a question, which hits the nail on the head, so I decided to write up a lengthy answer hoping that it would help more people make more money without increasing the number of clients.
Am I Leaving Money On The Counter By Not Using A Better Payment Processor?
One-click upsell quandry: my current system can’t do it. I’m using Simplero, which I love, but it can’t do the one-click upsells. How important is the “one click” part? Am I going to make a big sacrifice if I don’t switch system earlier rather than later? –Thanks!
Using The Wrong Payment Processor May Mean A Loss Of Thousands Of Dollars Each Month.
- Selling to an existing client: It’s 7 times more difficult to a new lead than to an existing client. So once a person pays you (even a few cents), they become a client, and since they trusted you with their cash, it’s a lot easier to get them to buy again and again. Takes very little energy to get them to click the Buy button.
- Hot buyers: Upgrading a deal before the buyer even put away their credit card is very, very easy. For them, the deal hasn’t been closed yet, and when you offer discounts, they think it’s the best deal ever and they’d buy even if they aren’t sure if they need that extra. Supermarkets and restaurants are masters at this: Would you like some wine with that dish, we have a great white wine on promotional prices this week, or would you like some fries with your burger, and a coke, you can get both for only $5 extra. Sure! Gimme. Not that you know what type of wine, or that you’d need the extra fries and coke. But what the heck, I’ll get them cause it sounds like a good deal

I don’t do affiliate marketing much. Usually, it’s because few products/services that have affiliate programs are worth marketing because they offer substandard quality/features/services. But every once in a while, I get across a service provider that is simply awesome and does have an affiliate program. For such providers, I do create an affiliate link and share it here and there.
Zaxaa is one of those services that deserve to be mentioned here on WebMaxFormance. So I’m not mentioning it because I’m an affiliate. Rather, I’m an affiliate because they’re worth mentioning and praising.
