When do people shop online?
March 11th, 2010I started a t-shirt shop for extra cash couple months back! Most of my sales came during St. Patty’s day but none really since then.
When/what are the common hours/time a day people shop online? Also, where is the best place to focus marketing efforts?
I use traffic exchanges but not good for direct selling. I can’t blog but have posted several classified ads. Myspace is falling on deaf ears so who buys funny t-shirts and what time are most purchases taking place?
Here is my shop zazzle.com/timetrax*
Surprisingly enough, people shop online most of the day. Now that cell phones can do pretty much anything. However, there much to do.
Social Media- Attach yourself to all of them: Twitter, Facebook, Myspace, and whatever you can think of.
Blog- People love blogs. Its a great way to see what others are wearing and its great way to communicate with people who buy from you . You might even get ideas too.
Word of Mouth- People are Always going to tell more than 10 people where they buy their clothes.
Website- It needs to be fresh with sales and text. If people go to your site day after day and nothing has changed, they will soon go somewhere else. People Love Change.
What do they get from your Site? Are you just asking them for money or are you giving something worth their time. Maybe something fun with their package or even a contest?
One more thing, YOUR WEBSITE NEEDS TO SELL! The site is not bad, but it needs to be more.
Good luck and I will be checking out your t-shirts.
