Put your best foot forward when it comes to posting images of your products! Try to use high-res images. Also, consider using images of models wearing or using your products. Customers love to see how items look in real-life settings!
5. Experiment with video reviews.
Get a trusted customer to give an honest review of your product. Video reviews build buyer trust and are the most effective way to sell your products online! If you’d like ShopAiken.com to provide this for you, let us know!
6. Shipping
Consider offering free shipping if a customer spends a certain amount of money in your store. While the upfront cost of offering free shipping may hurt at first, many merchants see a greater return with increased purchases after offering the policy.
