Increasing Your Bottom Line With Product Recommendations

November 24, 2008 by Tom Lindstrom · Leave a Comment 

You can increase your bottom line using product recommendations.This is one of the most effective ways to promote products and services online.When your visitors trust you, they will also trust your recommendations.Be careful not to promote everything with a recommendation,or your credibility will suffer from it.

When you recommend something,always state the benefits and the downsides of the product.When you are realistic and honest you build credibility and get loyal customers.If your visitors are interested in what you have to offer,they will be delighted to learn more about the product and see for them selves what is good or bad about it, and how using the product can benefit them.So,writing an honest and realistic recommendation will benefit you and you will sound like a true expert in your field.Avoid hype at all costs.

How do you become an expert in your field?

-By offering new and unique solutions that cannot be found anywhere else.
-By showing undeniable proof that your product works as promised.
-By showing prominent testimonials from respected names in your field.

By backing up your claims with hard facts, data and a money back guarantee,people will be more than
happy to try your products.When you are recommending a product,remember to give out freebies because your prospects are expecting them.

Promoting affiliate products can also be done with recommendations, but it is not so common.Try to
offer freebies that can promote or even have some information about your products or services.Before
you add recommendations to you product,you should try and test the product and support so you know that everything works properly.

You have worked long and hard to build credibility and trust among your visitors, so be sure that you do not promote junk products or services.Only use this strategy if you are 100% confident in what you offer.
