questions answered to purchasing, it's still
about service. But using tools such as websites
and apps can help you better meet customer
expectations for quick service. Your goal
should be to remove barriers and make
the process as automated and simplifi ed
as possible.
An e-commerce website enables you to
provide a self-service portal. To maximize
the convenience it offers your customers,
evaluate self-service components, and assess
the things you want to accomplish using
the site and ways it can do them.
Immediate communication. Can
visitors engage with you through your site?
Customers appreciate not having to call, text
or email to learn about products and specifics
such as general pricing information or even
a custom quote. Self-service components
like online catalogs and quote generators
provide immediate responses.
Online catalogs. Most of the industry's
top wholesalers now offer full downloadable
catalogs complete with professional photos
and product descriptions. You simply choose
the styles you want to offer on your website
and set the prices.
Make products easy to find. Having
an online catalog goes hand-in-hand with
answering the following questions: Can
customers easily browse your products and
services? Are your products organized in
logical, easy-to-understand format?
Also, does each product have a complete
description with a photo to answer questions
about sizes, colors and fashion details?
Shrinkage is one example of a frequently
asked question that often is not included
in apparel descriptions, but is critical to
many people shopping online.
Videos. A fast and easy way to educate
customers about your products and build
trust is to offer a short video about a
specific product. This may be a one-minute
presentation that focuses on a specific
T-shirt brand. Talk about the performance
characteristics, sizing, color availability and
why you recommend that brand.
Google My Business
One easy, fast way to raise your online presence is to
invest in an online tool called "Google My Business."
By registering, it puts all of your information in one
place and will put you in front of more people looking
for what you sell when they are on Google search, Google
Maps or Google+. Customers who follow your business page
can post reviews and give you feedback.
You also can track engagement for Google+ pages and posts,
and much more. Go check it out at google.com/business.
An important capability of
making it easy for customers
to do business for you is
having a mobilefriendly website.
