Hola fastlaners, I just wanted to share some thoughts rumbling around in my brain. Hopefully it can help some people, later on you can buy my Facebook course for $997 (just kidding)
Today I needed to do some work (sourcing some packaging) been putting this off for a while...anywhoo, I headed over to google and typed ''Vancouver product packaging''
Behold the mighty results, I looked through all the sites and am making split second decisions on who gets my money, of course I'll still need to vet these business's.
I've narrowed it down to a few based just on how the website looks, ok this might be a bad idea but my point here is people that look at your website are quick to judge.. heck I'm guilty myself, would you visit the fastlane forum if it looked like total crap? Probably not.
Ok, so these are ALL different websites in my hometown, the third one totally sucks, a bunch of text that noone will take the time to read and is most likely a pass. My favorite being the first one because it shows what I want without being bombarded by a million different options as the other sites. Just some food for thought, I'll need to call all of them and see who gives me the best price/service and make a final decision, or consider sourcing mass boxes from China lol, probably cheaper..
I would take a guess that websites clobbered with texts and don't ''get to the point'' have a much higher bounce rate, after all there is a whopping 13,700,000 results shown yet the sites that have done the seo/adwords work are up at the top.
Are you getting in your own way of a sale? Whatever your business is, make sure its straight to the point and don't waste the customers time. It really ticks me off having to click through a bunch of menus and look for this and that, ESPECIALLY when I barely even know what I want myself......
Have a great day!
