390 – BOOST – How to Sell Products through Your Website with Wendy Duckett


Listen Later

Today's topic is one that haunts many a product maker trying to find traction online.
That is, after spending so much time and effort getting a website up and functioning, there's no activity and therefore no sales coming from the site.
So, if this is a struggle for you, you're in luck! Because we go into detail on how to change the situation and swing your website results in your favor.
How To Sell Products Through Your Website
(What's a Boost, you ask? See details below)
Today, I talk with Wendy Duckett of Mystic Moon Soapworks. Her business is relatively new, but she has made great strides already.
I'm impressed that she started out just as a recommend - by validating her product idea to make sure there are people out there who will buy it.
But even though her website is up and looking good, she's not getting the results she hoped for.
In this Boost, we cover:
  • Why having your own website is the gold standard
  • Should you change the platform your website is built with?
  • Website navigation best practices
  • The importance of what shows "above the fold"
  • How to drive more traffic to your website
  • Ways to encourage shopping on your site
  • How to start collecting visitor emails for your email list
  • and more!

  • Tune into this whole conversation to hear all the tips and best practices on how to sell products through your website!
